In this post, we’ll set up the classification feature, which allows us to transform events into specific incident types.

Set Up Incident Classifier
Navigate to Settings -> Objects Setup -> Classification & Mapping -> New Incident Classifier. At the top, select the JSONSampleIncidentGenerator_url_events instance we created in the previous post. This allows us to work with sample events.
