Automatically notify stakeholders of Workbench insight progression by opening or updating cases and sending email notifications with AI-generated summaries.
The Workbench Insight Progression Update playbook helps security teams streamline
communication and accelerate response by automatically notifying stakeholders when
Workbench insights are generated or updated. This playbook can open or update a case
for the insight and send email notifications of insight information to specified recipients.
Notifications and case updates can include a Generative AI-generated summary of the
insight, providing clear and contextual information to support informed decision-making.
You can configure the playbook to target specific insights based on score, attack
phase, alert severity, or case status.
You must have the XDR Threat Investigation entitlement enabled and the following required
data sources configured to create Automated Response Playbooks: XDR Endpoint Sensor
or XDR Email Sensor
Procedure
- Go to .
- On the Playbooks tab, choose .
- On the Playbook Settings panel, select the XDR detection type, specify a unique name for the playbook, and click Apply.
- On the Trigger Settings panel, select Automatic or manual (executed from Workbench) or Manual (executed from Workbench) for the trigger type and click Apply.
-
Automatic or manual (executed from Workbench): Workbench insights automatically trigger playbook execution. Each time an insight is generated or updated, the playbook is triggered. You can also manually trigger playbook execution from Workbench.Select Execute playbook automatically only during specified period and specify the days and time periods for automatic execution.
Note
You can specify a maximum of 10 sets of days and time periods in Trigger Settings. -
Manual (executed from Workbench): You need to manually trigger playbook execution from Workbench.
-
- On the Target Settings panel,
select and configure the Target for the playbook and
click Apply.
- In the Target drop-down list, select Workbench insight.
- In the Alert severity within insight drop-down menu, select the severity level of alerts in the Workbench insights that need progression notification.
- If you want playbook actions to trigger only for Workbench insights within specific score range, select Filter insights by score, and select a range from the drop-down list or configure a custom range.
- If you want playbook actions to trigger only for Workbench insights associated with specific attack phase, select Filter insights by attach phase, and select attach phases from the drop-down list.
- Click the add node (
) on the right of the Target node and click Condition.
- Create a condition setting by specifying the
Parameter, Operator,
and Value.SettingDescriptionParameterSpecify one of the following options as the parameter:
-
Case
-
Insight score
-
Attack phase
-
Alert severity within insight
Operator-
IS: The condition is triggered if any of the values is matched
-
IS NOT: The condition is triggered if none of the values is matched
ValueSpecify the parameter value. -
- Click Apply.
- If you need to add more than one parallel
Condition node, click the add node (
) on the right of the Target node.
- If you need to configure action settings for the
Condition node, add an
Action node by clicking the add node (
) on the right.
For details, see Step 7. - If you need to configure else-if conditions or
else actions, add an Else-If Condition or
Else Action node by clicking the add node
(
) under the Condition node.
For details, see Step 9.
- Click the add node (
- Configure actions by adding an
Action node.
- Click the add node (
) on the right of the Condition node and click Action.
- On the Action Settings panel, configure the case-related actions taken on the targeted Workbench insights.ActionSettingsOpen new case
-
To include a Generative AI-generated summary of the insight in the new case, click Turn on Generative AI and select Workbench insight summary.
-
To import relevant contents from other cases, select Import case contents from cases with correlated alerts.
-
To assign a priority level to the case, select Assign case priority and select the priority level.
-
To designate case owners from Trend Vision One, select Assign Trend Vision One case owners and select owners from the Owners drop-down list.

- Configure a condition node by following Step 6, or configure an action node by following Step 7 or Step 8.
Note
-
The nodes that can be added by using an add node (
) vary depending on the preceding node. For example, an Action node can only be possibly followed by another Action node; a Condition node can be followed by an Action node or have an Else-If Condition or Else Action attached to it.
-
When a condition is false, the playbook performs the Else Action or checks if its Else-If Condition is met. If the Else-If Condition is met, the playbook continues to perform the corresponding Else Action.
-
Multiple Action nodes configured in a serial mode are taken sequentially.
- Click the add node (
- Enable the playbook by toggling the Enable control on.
