When using the DSM (Device Support Module) Editor in IBM QRadar to map an event to an OID (Object Identifier), the Event ID field is mandatory. The Event ID uniquely identifies the event within QRadar and is essential for ensuring that the correct event data is associated with the appropriate OID. This mapping process allows QRadar to properly categorize and handle events based on their unique identifiers.
