/services/data/threat_intel/item/{threat_intel_collection}

Perform CRUD operations on an existing threat intelligence collection.

Syntax

https://<host>:<mPort>/services/data/threat_intel/item/{threat_intel_collection}

Usage details

The collection name must be one of the following:

  • ip_intel
  • file_intel
  • user_intel
  • http_intel
  • email_intel
  • service_intel
  • process_intel
  • registry_intel
  • certificate_intel

Some methods require the _key field. To find the key for a row in a collection, run a search using the inputlookup command and the relevant threat_intel_collection and use eval to display the _key field for each row. For example:

GET

List one or more rows from a collection.

Request parameters

PUT

Update one or more rows in a collection.

Request parameters
