Testing a tagger

The tagger overview page displays the details of your tagger definition. From this page, you can do the following:

  • Create a new draft version of the tagger
  • Delete the tagger
  • Test the tagger
  • Run tagger backfill
  • Enable the tagger normfill to run on ingest.

To test the tagger, you should run it against a log that you know should be tagged, as well as a control log. However, since you do not have a control log available, you will just run it against the log you previously analyzed.

  1. Click the Test button.
