TheHive connector and action

TheHive connector and action

edit

TheHive connector uses the TheHive (v1) REST API to create cases and alerts. [8.16.0] Added in 8.16.0.

If you use this connector with cases, the status values differ in Kibana and TheHive. The status values are not synchronized when you update a case.

Create connectors in Kibana

edit

You can create connectors in Stack Management > Connectors or as needed when you’re creating a rule. For example:

TheHive connector

Organisation
The organisation in TheHive that will contain the cases or alerts.
URL
The instance URL in TheHive.
API key
The API key for authentication in TheHive.

Test connectors

edit

You can test connectors for creating a case or an alert with the run connector API or as you’re creating or editing the connector in Kibana. For example:
