Navigate to All > Qualys Vulnerability Integration > Administration > Integration Instances.
Note: Ensure that the scope you are in is Qualys for Security Operations.
-
Open the instance that is used by the PCRS integrations.
-
On the Integration Instance Parameters tab, add the gateway url for gateway_url configuration.
Note: The Qualys PCRS Test Results Integration is dependent on the Qualys PCRS Policy Host Integration. So, if you backdate the integration Qualys PCRS Test Results, you might have to run them in the same order again.
