You have the option here to enable automatic ticket creation, which can be defined based on the criteria of the confidence level of the anomaly.

For example, if the anomaly has a confidence level higher than 85%, a ticket is automatically created in Cloud Pak for Security Cases.                       

You have many other options here to define, for example, the short description, or description of when the ticket is created in Cases, or to have it automatically assigned to a certain group or user.

Finish editing the ticket template and click Save.

Next, let's see an example of what this integration looks like.
