Abstract
Conditions for creating a new ping
A new ping will only be created if both of the following are true:
- New information exists — for example, a new PEP match that was not already included in a previous ping, or new transactions that exceed a given threshold
- The rule is not muted — if a rule is muted, it will not generate pings, even if new information appears.
Practical examples
- Rule muted + new information appears (even a stronger match%) → No ping is created.
- Rule not muted + no new information (already reported before) → No ping is created.
- Rule not muted + new information appears → A new ping is created. ✅
What if a ping is not handled or ignored?
If a ping is not handled or is ignored, it will not be recreated the next day.
- The same ping does not reappear repeatedly.
- A new ping will only be triggered if new information appears and the rule is not muted.
- However, the rule’s recommendation still applies. For example, if the rule’s recommendation is "Block", then all relevant requests will continue to be blocked until the ping is handled.
Special case: Error pings
Error pings behave differently. They are generated every time an error occurs, regardless of whether the rule is muted, or whether the error was already reported before.
