Fraud Detection:Create a field

Last Updated:Mar 15, 2023

This topic describes how to create a field in the decision engine.

Background information

  • Description: Fields are components of an event. An event typically has multiple fields. For example, a registration event has fields such as the mobile number, IP address, email address, and registration time. You can use the system fields that are provided by the decision engine, or create custom fields. We recommend that you use the system fields. Field types include string, integer, floating-point, Boolean, date, and enumeration.

  • Scenario: The system fields can meet the requirements in most scenarios. If the system fields cannot meet your requirements, you can create custom fields.

Procedure

  1. Log on to the Fraud Detection console.

  2. In the left-side navigation pane, choose Decision Engine > Field Management.

  3. On the Field Management page, click New field.

  4. Set the parameters for the field.

    • Field name: the name of the field. The name must start with DE. We recommend that you set a field name that can reflect its business meaning, such as DEorderId.

    • Field display name: the display name of the field, such as Order ID.

    • Field type: the type of the field. Field types include string, integer, floating-point, Boolean, date, and enumeration.

    • Field classification: the category of the field. Fields are divided into device fields and business fields.

    • Field description: the description of the field.
