Review Beacon Suggestions
Turn repeated alert patterns into catalog structure instead of leaving them as anonymous noise.
Before you start
- Let Beacon ingest enough real traffic to produce useful suggestions.
- Be ready to reject weak suggestions instead of importing noisy structure.
Do this
- Open
Alertsand switch toSuggestions. - Filter the queue by type or search term if you are reviewing one service area at a time.
- Open each suggestion and read the proposed system or function name, supporting samples, and occurrence count.
- Link the suggestion to an existing catalog object when Beacon has identified the right target but the object already exists.
- Create a new system or function only when the suggestion represents a stable part of your service model.
- Leave weak, duplicate, or one-off suggestions unaccepted.
- Revisit suggestions after you improve source mapping so the next batch is cleaner.
Check it worked
- Accepted suggestions create or link the expected catalog objects.
- The catalog becomes easier to route against instead of more cluttered.
- The remaining queue is smaller and higher quality.
If it does not work
- If suggestions are vague, improve summary mapping on the underlying sources first.
- If Beacon keeps proposing duplicates, review naming consistency in your catalog.
- If a suggestion should match an existing object but does not, link it manually instead of creating a duplicate.
