# IDS Validation

{% embed url="<https://qonic.wistia.com/medias/iwa5q4j7jg>" %}

1. Under *Analyze*, click *IDS Validation*
2. In the Command Center, click the *Click to upload IDS file* button
3. Select an .ids file from your desktop
4. Press *Enter* or click the *Apply* button.&#x20;

A notification will be displayed in the top-right corner with the results of the check. Each failed check will result in a separate subnotification, which you can individually visualize and/or raise to [issues](/documentation/qonic-application/querying-and-reporting/issues-panel.md) by clicking the individual hand icons next to each subnotification. Alternatively, you can batch create issues for all failed checks by clicking the hand icon in the header of the notification.

{% hint style="warning" %}
There is a known issue where the same .ids file cannot be uploaded twice consecutively in the same session in the web browser. If this problem occurs, please refresh your page or open Qonic in the desktop application.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://help.qonic.com/documentation/qonic-application/analysing/ids-validation.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
