Move a Scan to the Trash Folder

Required Scan Permissions: Can View

When you move a shared scan to the Trash folder, Tenable Vulnerability Management moves the scan for your account only. The scan remains in the original folder for all other users who have Can View permissions or higher for the scan.

Scans moved to the Trash folder also appear in the All Scans folder, marked with the label, Trash.

Note: After you move a scan to the Trash folder, the scan remains in the Trash folder until the scan owner or an administrator permanently deletes the scan.

Note: Scheduled scans do not run if they are in the scan owner's Trash folder.

  • For more information about Tenable Vulnerability Management scan schedules, see Schedule.

  • For more information about Tenable Web App Scanning scan schedules, see Schedule.

Note: You cannot move scans from the Remediation Scans folder to the Trash folder. Instead, delete remediation scans directly in the folder.
