Output is a specific object used for storing information on the compliance of an object in reference to the object CloudAware Policy. The output object is created every time when a corresponding input object is evaluated by a policy according to the status determined in a policy lifecycle.
Cloudaware supports 2 output objects at the moment - CloudAware Benchmark Check for CIS Benchmark Policies (perspectively, for other benchmarks as well), and CloudAware Policy Violation for the rest of compliance policies.
Attributes:
The checkbox ‘Lookup Field’ shows whether an output object has a lookup to the object CloudAware Policy. The checkbox ‘Output Fields Mapping Class’ shows whether a specific class required for correct mapping is present. If present, this class will be used automatically when a policy is deployed and run. To request a class for a new output object type, please contact Cloudaware at support@cloudaware.com
The checkbox ‘Status’ shows whether an object is available for being used as output.
