# Select Attachments Poller

A Poller is a configuration record which defines the frequency of polling and which logic to use (the logic itself is defined in the Poll Processor). Each time it is run, it creates a corresponding Poll Request record.

## New Poller

Click the **'Pollers' icon** & then **New**.

The fields to be configured for our Poller record are as follows:

<table><thead><tr><th width="170.60691670725768">Field</th><th width="284.3333333333333">Description</th><th>Value</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td>Name*</td><td>The name of your Poller.</td><td>&#x3C;Your Name></td></tr><tr><td>Poll processor*</td><td>The Poll Processor to use when running this Poller.</td><td>&#x3C;Your Poll Processor></td></tr><tr><td>Run</td><td>The frequency at which the Poller should run.</td><td>'On Demand'</td></tr><tr><td>Run as</td><td>Poller will run with credentials of specified user.</td><td>&#x3C;Your  Inbound user> (from Connection)</td></tr><tr><td>Active*</td><td>Set to true to use this Poller record for processing.</td><td>&#x3C;true></td></tr></tbody></table>

*\*These fields are mandatory, or automatically defaulted to true.*

*Your New Poller modal should look like this:*

## Update Connection Variable

Update the value of the 'select\_attachments' Connection Variable with the sys\_id of the child Poller.

![](/files/-MguQtIF3DSOog4he9aa)

Click on the **Hamburger Menu** and select **Open in platform**.

The Poller opens in a new window.

![](/files/-MguREBsY0cMeIWkJGBy)

**Right-click** the Header & '**Copy sys\_id**'.

Open the variable created on the '[Connection Variables](/unifi/3.1/integration-guides/incident-attachment-poller-guide/polling/connection-variables.md#variable-select_attachments_poller)' page of this Guide and update the value with the copied sys\_id.

Next, we will **edit** our previously configured **Child Poll Processor** so that it becomes the parent of this.
