[TOC]
\section ds_summary_overview Overview
The Data Source Summary viewer allows you to see an overview of file types, results, and other information for a particular data source.
\section ds_summary_opening Opening the Data Source Summary
There are two ways to view the data source summary. The first is to go to Case->Data Source Summary. This will open the summary in a new window.

The second way to view the summary is to select the data source in the \ref tree_viewer_page and then select the "Summary" tab in the \ref result_viewer_page.

\section ds_summary_main Sections
Each tab of the data source summary displays different types of information about the selected data source. If ingest is ongoing, the summary will be updated periodically as new data is available.
If the ingest module(s) required for a data type have not been run, you will see a note about why there is no data. For example, "Recent Programs" results are created by the \ref recent_activity_page, so you will see a message about running that module if you have not.

\subsection ds_summary_types Types
The Types tab shows counts of different file types found in the data source.

\subsection ds_summary_user_activity User Activity
The User Activity tab shows the most recent results found in the data source.

\subsection ds_summary_analysis Analysis
The Analysis tab shows the sets with the most results from the \ref hash_db_page, the \ref keyword_search_page, and the \ref interesting_files_identifier_page.

\subsection ds_summary_recent_files Recent Files
The Recent Files tab shows information on the most recent files opened and downloaded.

\subsection ds_summary_past_cases Past Cases
The Past Cases tab shows which cases had results or notable files in common with the current data source. This is based on the results in the "Interesting Items" section of the Results section in the \ref tree_viewer_page. The \ref central_repo_page ingest module must have been run with the options to "Flag items previously tagged as notable" and "Flag devices previously seen in other cases" enabled.

Note that because these entries are based on the Interesting Items results created during ingest and not querying the central repository, they will not reflect any matches in cases processed after this case. For example, suppose we create Case A and ingest a data source with Device Z. If we make a new case Case B afterward and ingest a data source that also has Device Z, we would see Case A listed in this tab for Case B, but if we reopened Case A we would not see Case B listed unless ingest was run again.
\subsection ds_summary_geo Geolocation
\subsection ds_summary_timeline Timeline
The Timeline tab shows a simplified version of the \ref timeline_page "Timeline Viewer". It displays all fi

\subsection ds_summary_ingest_history Ingest History
The Ingest History tab shows which ingest modules have been run on the data source and the version of each module.

\subsection ds_summary_container Container
The Container tab displays information on the data source itself, such as the size and image paths.
