Investigation links are items that you can add to a workflow for investigation by your
recipients. When a recipient receives a review task, including an investigation link can offer more
context to them, thus allowing their response to you to also have greater context.
Before you begin
To create an investigation link, click Investigation links in the Workflows page and then click
Create investigation link in the Investigation links
page. Or, when you are choosing an
investigation link, click Create investigation link.
Investigation links are saved to Guardium Data Security Center so
that you can reuse them in different workflows.
