Hello,

How to do this?

 ![image](https://forum-uploads-hub-prod-1-us-east-1-rapid7-com.s3.dualstack.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/original/2X/c/ca5f1ff79883d9e4e702c2a2561f505c2baf6353.png)

I cannot see that automation option or any alert triggers option in SIEM.

Hi pkm, What IDR licensing do you have? Automation requires specific Ultimate or Advanced licensing.
