Cortex - Get all Incidents

L1 Bithead

Hi Cortex API community experts,

 

I am trying to generate a monthly report for various areas of the business for a list of Incidents raised during the month for their respective servers. I was hoping that the "get_incidents" api could help with this. As I could pass in predefinded queries with a list of servers for each department.

 

API:

https://{{url}}/public_api/v1/incidents/get_incidents/

 

Body:

{
           "request_data": {
               "filters": [
                   {
                       "field""description",
                       "operator""contains",
                       "value": ["server1"]
                   }
               ],
               "search_from"0,
               "search_to"100,
               "sort": {
                   "field""creation_time",
                   "keyword""desc"
               }
           }
    }
Response:
{
    "reply": {
        "err_code"400,
        "err_msg""Got an invalid input while processing XDR public API - incident management",
        "err_extra""description must be of type: str"
    }
}
 
Does anyone know why I get this response back "description must be of type:str" ?
 
If I use "in" instead of "contains"it works, though I need to specify the full description string eg: 
"'Memory Corruption Exploit' generated by XDR Agent detected on host server1 involving user johndoe"
This would not fit the purpose though, as I am simply looking to filter all the Incidents for specific hosts for the monthly reports.
 
Many thanks !

Hi @MichaelEdwards2, I would ask this one in the Cortex area: https://live.paloaltonetworks.com/t5/cortex-xdr-discussions/bd-p/Analytics_Discussions

Hi Michael,

as the error says, the query filter should contain a "string", you are sending an "array". The API documentation is not always very clear...(https://docs.paloaltonetworks.com/cortex/cortex-xdr/cortex-xdr-api/cortex-xdr-apis/incident-manageme...)

Change your query request to:

Body:

{
           "request_data": {
               "filters": [
                   {
                       "field""description",
                       "operator""contains",
                       "value""server1"
                   }
               ],
               "search_from"0,
               "search_to"100,
               "sort": {
                   "field""creation_time",
                   "keyword""desc"
               }
           }
    }

and it should work...

 

Cheers

Phil
