The table below lists the criteria that are supported in auto discovery advanced mode rules.

#How Do I Select the Right Conditions?

When you configure rules for an advanced mode scan profile in Auto discovery, refer to the information below to select a proper condition from Equals, Equals any of, Contains, and Matches:

• Equals – Use this condition to scan objects whose property values are equal to the entered value.

• Equals any of – Use this condition to scan objects whose property values are equal to any of the entered values.

• Contains – Use this condition to scan objects whose property values contain the entered value.

• Matches – Use this condition to scan objects whose property values match the entered value and wildcards.

For example, when you scan SharePoint sites by the URL criterion, you can refer to the following information to configure conditions:

• If you want to scan the SharePoint site whose URL is https://contoso.sharepoint.com/sites/site1, choose the Equals condition and set the value to the desired SharePoint site URL.

• If you want to scan multiple SharePoint sites, whose URLs are https://contoso.sharepoint.com/sites/site1 and https://contoso.sharepoint.com/sites/site2, into the specified container, choose the Equals any of condition, and enter the desired SharePoint sites’ URLs separated by semicolon (;).

• If you want to scan the SharePoint sites whose URLs contain site1, choose the Contains condition and set the value to site1.

• If you want to scan the SharePoint sites whose URLs begin with https://contoso.sharepoint.com/sites/, choose the Matches condition and set the value to https://contoso.sharepoint.com/sites/*.
