# Get Attachment 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:

| Field            | Description                                           | Value                                  |
| ---------------- | ----------------------------------------------------- | -------------------------------------- |
| Name\*           | The name of your Poller.                              | \<Your Name>                           |
| Poll processor\* | The Poll Processor to use when running this Poller.   | \<Your Poll Processor>                 |

| Active\*         | Set to true to use this Poller record for processing. | \<true>                                |
