Alerting

Alerting enables you to define rules, which detect complex conditions within your data. When a condition is met, the rule tracks it as an alert and runs the actions that are defined in the rule. Actions typically involve the use of connectors to interact with Kibana services or third party integrations.

        • indices array[object]
          Hide indices attributes Show indices attributes object
          • allow_restricted_indices boolean

            Restricted indices are a special category of indices that are used internally to store configuration data and should not be directly accessed. Only internal system roles should normally grant privileges over the restricted indices. Toggling this flag is very strongly discouraged because it could effectively grant unrestricted operations on critical data, making the entire system unstable or leaking sensitive information. If for administrative purposes you need to create a role with privileges covering restricted indices, however, you can set this property to true. In that case, the names field covers the restricted indices too.

            The index level privileges that the role members have for the data streams and indices.

            At least 1 element.

          • query string

            A search query that defines the documents the role members have read access to. A document within the specified data streams and indices must match this query in order for it to be accessible by the role members.

Rotate a key for encrypted saved objects

POST /api/encrypted_saved_objects/_rotate_key

Superuser role required.

If a saved object cannot be decrypted using the primary encryption key, then Kibana will attempt to decrypt it using the specified decryption-only keys. In most of the cases this overhead is negligible, but if you're dealing with a large number of saved objects and experiencing performance issues, you may want to rotate the encryption key.

This functionality is in technical preview and may be changed or removed in a future release. Elastic will work to fix any issues, but features in technical preview are not subject to the support SLA of official GA features.

Query parameters

  • batch_size number

    Specifies a maximum number of saved objects that Kibana can process in a single batch. Bulk key rotation is an iterative process since Kibana may not be able to fetch and process all required saved objects in one go and splits processing into consequent batches. By default, the batch size is 10000, which is also a maximum allowed value.

    Default value is 10000.

  • type string

    Limits encryption key rotation only to the saved objects with the specified type. By default, Kibana tries to rotate the encryption key for all saved object types that may contain encrypted attributes.

Responses

  • 200 application/json

    Indicates a successful call.

    Hide response attributes Show response attributes object
    • failed number

      Indicates the number of the saved objects that were still encrypted with one of the old encryption keys that Kibana failed to re-encrypt with the primary key.

    • successful number

      Indicates the total number of all encrypted saved objects (optionally filtered by the requested type), regardless of the key Kibana used for encryption.

      NOTE: In most cases, total will be greater than successful even if failed is zero. The reason is that Kibana may not need or may not be able to rotate encryption keys for all encrypted saved objects.

    • total number

      Indicates the total number of all encrypted saved objects (optionally filtered by the requested type), regardless of the key Kibana used for encryption.

Resolve a saved object Deprecated

GET /api/saved_objects/resolve/{type}/{id}

Retrieve a single Kibana saved object by identifier using any legacy URL alias if it exists. Under certain circumstances, when Kibana is upgraded, saved object migrations may necessitate regenerating some object IDs to enable new features. When an object's ID is regenerated, a legacy URL alias is created for that object, preserving its old ID. In such a scenario, that object can be retrieved using either its new ID or its old ID.

Path parameters

  • id string Required

    An identifier for the saved object.

  • type string Required

    Valid options include visualization, dashboard, search, index-pattern, config.

When expanding this field, it may look something like:

      const investigationFields = z.object({
  field_names: NonEmptyArray(NonEmptyString),
  override: z.boolean().optional(),
});

Security exceptions

Exceptions are associated with detection and endpoint rules, and are used to prevent a rule from generating an alert from incoming events, even when the rule's other criteria are met. They can help reduce the number of false positives and prevent trusted processes and network activity from generating unnecessary alerts.

Exceptions are made up of:

  • Exception containers: A container for related exceptions. Generally, a single exception container contains all the exception items relevant for a subset of rules. For example, a container can be used to group together network-related exceptions that are relevant for a large number of network rules. The container can then be associated with all the relevant rules.
  • Exception items: The query (fields, values, and logic) used to prevent rules from generating alerts. When an exception item's query evaluates to true, the rule does not generate an alert.

For detection rules, you can also use lists to define rule exceptions. A list holds multiple values of the same Elasticsearch data type, such as IP addresses. These values are used to determine when an exception prevents an alert from being generated.

You cannot use lists with endpoint rule exceptions.


Only exception containers can be associated with rules. You cannot directly associate an exception item or a list container with a rule. To use list exceptions, create an exception item that references the relevant list container.

Exceptions requirements

Before you can start working with exceptions that use value lists, you must create the .lists and .items data streams for the relevant Kibana space. To do this, use the Create list data streams endpoint. Once these data streams are created, your role needs privileges to manage rules. For a complete list of requirements, refer to Enable and access detections.
