DESCRIPTION:

This article describes about how to create a custom query and set the query action to send report over an email to multiple recipients.

RESOLUTION:

Cloud App Security allows you to create custom queries and send that report as an email to multiple recipients. Follow below steps to create a custom query:

• Login to cloud.sonicwall.com 
• Select the tenant under which the product is registered. Click Cloud App Security tile, this launches the cloud App security portal 
  
  
  
• Navigate to Analytics | Custom queries. Click Add new  query.
  
  
  
• After configuring the query as per your requirement, save the query by going to Query | Save as and provide a query name, Query Severity, other details as required and Click Ok
  
  
  
• After saving the query, set the query action to send email report. You can add multiple recipient email address ( internal / external users ) separated by comma. 

• Now, you should be able to see the newly configured custom query under your custom queries list.
• Click Scheduled report edit button on the query 
  
  
  
• Fill the schedule details as per your requierement and click ok
  

NOTE: When query is sent to multiple recipients, there is an arrow to expand and list the recipients. This doesn't expand which prevents you from seeing who the query was sent to. This is an expected behavior.
