Run Qualys Vulnerability Scans and Post to Slack
When called by a parent workflow or run manually, a Qualys vulnerability scan is started, polled until it finishes, and the results are sent to Slack.
What it does
# Qualys Vulnerability Trigger Scan Workflow ## This workflow is triggered by a parent workflow initiated via a Slack shortcut.
