Related integration is a potential dependency of a rule. It's assumed that if the user installs one of the related integrations of a rule, the rule might start to work properly because it will have source events (generated by this integration) potentially matching the rule's query.

NOTE: Proper work is not guaranteed, because a related integration, if installed, can be configured differently or generate data that is not necessarily relevant for this rule.

Related integration is a combination of a Fleet package and (optionally) one of the package's "integrations" that this package contains. It is represented by 3 properties:
- package: name of the package (required, unique id)
- version: version of the package (required, semver-compatible)
- integration: name of the integration of this package (optional, id within the package)
There are Fleet packages like windows that contain only one integration; in this case, integration should be unspecified. There are also packages like aws and azure that contain several integrations; in this case, integration should be specified.

Input parameters to create a RequiredField. Does not include the ecs field, because ecs is calculated on the backend based on the field name and type.

NOTE: Proper work is not guaranteed, because a related integration, if installed, can be configured differently or generate data that is not necessarily relevant for this rule.

Related integration is a combination of a Fleet package and (optionally) one of the package's "integrations" that this package contains. It is represented by 3 properties:
- package: name of the package (required, unique id)
- version: version of the package (required, semver-compatible)
- integration: name of the integration of this package (optional, id within the package)
There are Fleet packages like windows that contain only one integration; in this case, integration should be unspecified. There are also packages like aws and azure that contain several integrations; in this case, integration should be specified.

  74 - 100 represents critical severity
  Minimum value is 0, maximum value is 100.
- value string Required
rule_id string

A stable unique identifier for the rule object. It can be assigned during rule creation. It can be any string, but often is a UUID. It should be unique not only within a given Kibana space, but also across spaces and Elastic environments. The same prebuilt Elastic rule, when installed in two different Kibana spaces or two different Elastic environments, will have the same rule_ids.
rule_name_override string

Sets which field in the source event is used to populate the alert's signal.rule.name value (in the UI, this value is displayed on the Rules page in the Rule column). When unspecified, the rule’s name value is used. The source field must be a string data type.
setup string

Populates the rule’s setup guide with instructions on rule prerequisites such as required integrations, configuration steps, and anything else needed for the rule to work correctly.
severity string Required
Severity level of alerts produced by the rule, which must be one of the following:
- low: Alerts that are of interest but generally not considered to be security incidents
- medium: Alerts that require investigation
- high: Alerts that require immediate investigation
- critical: Alerts that indicate it is highly likely a security incident has occurred
Values are low, medium, high, or critical.
severity_mapping array[object]

Overrides generated alerts' severity with values from the source event

  Value is equals.
- severity string Required

  critical: Alerts that indicate it is highly likely a security incident has occurred

timestamp_override_fallback_disabled boolean

Disables the fallback to the event's @timestamp field
to string
version integer
The rule's version number.
- For prebuilt rules it represents the version of the rule's content in the source detection-rules repository (and the corresponding security_detection_engine Fleet package that is used for distributing prebuilt rules).
- For custom rules it is set to 1 when the rule is created.
It is not incremented on each update. Compare this to the revision field.
