Network Sonar/Discovery Email Alerting

Greetings Thwackland!

Question about customizing Solarwinds Network Discovery alerts. I have six different network discoveries that run nightly and I was wondering if anyone had tried to customize the Network Discovery alert per 'domain' or per network discovery job? Trying to figure out how I can make the alert a bit more meaningful. I was thinking about using the Only Following Set of Objects BUT that would mean they are in already. If anyone has any thoughts that would be great.

Thanks! -Dave

I've been thinking about replacing the OOB alert with a copy that removes one condition from the triggers:

Auto-Import is equal to Yes

We have auto-import disabled, so it would be nice to see in the email a list of discovered nodes that might need to be imported. It looks like adding any further detail to the trigger action would require use of SWQL. That would probably be a way to include a reference to which discovery job found the node, or maybe a count of how many changed items were found.
