# Edgescan PlexTrac integrates with Edgescan, allowing users to import the findings from Edgescan's vulnerability detection into a PlexTrac report. This integration streamlines the process by leveraging Edgescan's automated vulnerability scanning capabilities and the reporting and management features of PlexTrac.

{% hint style="info" %} This is a licensed feature. {% endhint %} ## Field Mappings Below are the field mappings from Edgescan to PlexTrac, broken up by findings and assets. Tables include the following columns: * **Edgescan Field:** the field name that appears in Edgescan * **PlexTrac Field:** the field name that appears in PlexTrac * **Direction:** displays the direction in the flow of data occurring for the integration (a value of "x" means that the value is not imported) * **Required:** denotes if a value is required in the field for the import to be successful * **Notes:** additional information ### Findings Field Mappings

After a [finding from Edgescan is imported into a report](https://docs.plextrac.com/plextrac-documentation/product-documentation/reports/findings/importing-findings-via-an-integration), metadata and content are presented within PlexTrac on the Finding Detail page, as shown below.\ \ The finding source value is "Edgescan," and any tags associated with the finding from Edgescan are provided along with any added within PlexTrac when imported.

## Deduplication Logic If a duplicate finding title is found during import, the finding title in PlexTrac is appended with the Edgescan `Vulnerability ID` in parenthesis at the end of the finding title.

## Integrating with Edgescan Step 1: From the **Admin Dashboard**, click **Integrations** under the "Tools & Integrations" header. ![](https://4252973360-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2F-LXA6EayCcg12qfDcfXd%2Fuploads%2FbBK4JfGkJZnOSqx41nqY%2Fimage.png?alt=media\&token=260033ae-bc58-4c36-a81b-bf682f18130c) Step 2: Click the Edgescan box.

Step 3: Click **New connection**.

Step 4: On the **Configuration Details** tab, enter a name for the integration, the Edgescan URL value, the Edgescan API key, and if closed vulnerabilities should be included.

* **Integration name:** A name for this integration. When importing findings, this value will appear elsewhere in the platform along with other enabled integrations, so pick a unique but accurate name. * **Edgescan URL:** The Edgescan instance URL. * **Edgescan API Key:** The Edgescan instance API key. Visit [Edgescan support](https://support.edgescan.com/support/solutions/articles/44002143613-creating-api-and-authentication-tokens) for information on generating an API key. * **Closed Vulnerabilities**: Determines whether to include closed vulnerabilities and, if yes, the time of closure to consider for inclusion. Step 5: On the **Mapping** tab, review the mappings and select the fields to import into PlexTrac by validating that the checkbox next to the field is selected. To ignore a field upon import, uncheck the box under the "Sync" column. Required fields (checkbox is greyed out) cannot be altered.

Step 6: Click **Save**. Step 7: A message on the **First Synch** tab will confirm if the synch was successful. If successful, click **Got It**.

The connection is now listed.

## Editing Existing Connections Connections are edited by clicking **Edit** under the "Actions" column.

Connections can be disabled by clicking the toggle bar under the "Enabled" column.

Connections can be manually synchronized by clicking **Sync** under the "Actions" column.

Connections can be deleted by clicking the three dots under the "Actions" column and then **Delete**. A modal will appear, asking for confirmation of action.

Findings from Edgescan can now be[ imported into a report](https://docs.plextrac.com/plextrac-documentation/product-documentation/reports/findings/importing-findings-via-an-integration). ## Viewing Logs Step 1: Click **Edit** of the connection to review.

Step 2: Click the **Synch Log** tab.

A list of all synchronization records and status results is provided.

Step 3: Click **View** to obtain more information about a specific record.

Step 4: More details about remote URLs and JSON responses are available by clicking the headers below to expand the section.

Click **Ok** or **Cancel** to return to the previous modal. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
