Running and Managing Scans

Scan Progress

After starting a scan, you can see the last updated time and a running count of how many emails have been scanned. A scan typically completes in seconds for a small mailbox; larger sets of mailboxes take longer.

UI refresh: The status display may continue to show an in-progress state even after a scan finishes. Refresh the page, or switch to another connector and back, to see the updated status and counts.

Selecting a completed scan shows when it was created and when it completed, along with the number of emails scanned.

Scan Actions

Each scan configuration offers the following actions:

Table 1. Scan actions
Action Description
Start email scan Runs the scan again using the same configuration — useful when you have sent new test emails and want to re-scan.
Cancel scan Stops a scan that is currently running.
Rescan scheduler Sets a recurring cadence (daily, weekly or monthly) at a specific time and time zone — for example Asia/Kolkata for Indian time. The scan then runs automatically at the chosen day and time.
Permissions Shows which permissions apply to the configuration (such as move files, revoke permission, cloud tagging and scanning).
Scan history Shows all scans run on this configuration, so you can review historical runs.
View user actions Shows an audit log of user activity, including the username, the module accessed, the type of operation performed, and the timestamp (date and time) it was carried out.
Edit configuration Lets you change the credential or the name. The path (scope) cannot be changed.
Delete configuration Removes the configuration.
