Snyk module
editSnyk module
editThis functionality is in beta and is subject to change. The design and code is less mature than official GA features and is being provided as-is with no warranties. Beta features are not subject to the support SLA of official GA features.
This is a module for ingesting data from the different Snyk API Endpoints. Currently supports these filesets:
-
vulnerabilities
fileset: Collects all found vulnerabilities for the related organizations and projects -
audit
fileset: Collects audit logging from Snyk, this can be actions like users, permissions, groups, api access and more.
When you run the module, it performs a few tasks under the hood:
- Sets the default paths to the log files (but don’t worry, you can override the defaults)
- Makes sure each multiline log event gets sent as a single event
- Uses an Elasticsearch ingest pipeline to parse and process the log lines, shaping the data into a structure suitable for visualizing in Kibana
Read the quick start to learn how to configure and run modules.
Configure the module
editYou can further refine the behavior of the snyk
module by specifying
variable settings in the
modules.d/snyk.yml
file, or overriding settings at the command line.
You must enable at least one fileset in the module. Filesets are disabled by default.
Variable settings
editEach fileset has separate variable settings for configuring the behavior of the
module. If you don’t specify variable settings, the snyk
module uses
the defaults.
For advanced use cases, you can also override input settings. See Override input settings.
When you specify a setting at the command line, remember to prefix the
setting with the module name, for example, snyk.audit.var.paths
instead of audit.var.paths
.

To configure access for Filebeat to the Snyk Audit Log API you will have to generate an API access token as described in the Snyk Documentation
Example config:
- module: snyk audit: var.input: httpjson var.audit_type: organization var.audit_id: 1235432-asdfdf-2341234-asdgjhg var.interval: 1h var.api_token: 53453Sddf8-7fsf-414234gfd-9sdfb7-5asdfh9f8e342
There is also multiple optional configuration options that can be used to filter out unwanted content, an example below:
- module: snyk audit: var.input: httpjson var.audit_type: organization var.audit_id: 1235432-asdfdf-2341234-asdgjhg var.interval: 1h var.api_token: 53453Sddf8-7fsf-414234gfd-9sdfb7-5asdfh9f8e342 var.email_address: "test@example.com"
-
var.paths
-
An array of glob-based paths that specify where to look for the log files. All
patterns supported by Go Glob
are also supported here. For example, you can use wildcards to fetch all files
from a predefined level of subdirectories:
/path/to/log/*/*.log
. This fetches all.log
files from the subfolders of/path/to/log
. It does not fetch log files from the/path/to/log
folder itself. If this setting is left empty, Filebeat will choose log paths based on your operating system. -
var.first_interval
- How far to look back the first time the module starts, this supports values in full days (24h, 48h etc).
-
var.audit_type
- What audit type to collect, can be either "group" or "organization".
-
var.audit_id
- The ID related to the audit_type. If audit type is group, then this value should be the group ID, or if it is organization it should be the organization ID to collect from.
-
var.api_token
- The API token that is created for a specific user, found in the Snyk management dashboard.
-
var.project_id
- Optional field for filtering, will return only logs for this specific project.
-
var.user_id
- Optional field for filtering, user public ID. Will fetch only audit logs originated from this user’s actions.
-
var.event
- Optional field for filtering, will return only logs for this specific event.
-
var.email_address
- Optional field for filtering, User email address. Will fetch only audit logs originated from this user’s actions.
