Delete multiple detection rules | Kibana API documentation (v8)

Delete multiple detection rules Deprecated

POST /api/detection_engine/rules/_bulk_delete

Api key auth Basic auth

Delete detection rules in bulk.

This API is deprecated and will be removed in Kibana v9.0.

application/json

Body Required

A JSON array of id or rule_id fields of the rules you want to delete.

id string(uuid)

A dynamic unique identifier for the rule object. It is randomly generated when a rule is created and cannot be changed after that. It is always a UUID. It is unique within a given Kibana space. The same prebuilt Elastic rule, when installed in two different Kibana spaces or two different Elastic environments, will have different object ids.
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.

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.

Values are detection, rule_default, endpoint, endpoint_trusted_apps, endpoint_events, endpoint_host_isolation_exceptions, or endpoint_blocklists.

false_positives array[string] Required

String array used to describe common reasons why the rule may issue false-positive alerts. Defaults to an empty array.

from string(date-math) Required

Time from which data is analyzed each time the rule runs, using a date math range. For example, now-4200s means the rule analyzes data from 70 minutes before its start time. Defaults to now-6m (analyzes data from 6 minutes before the start time).

interval string Required

Frequency of rule execution, using a date math range. For example, "1h" means the rule runs every hour. Defaults to 5m (5 minutes).

investigation_fields object

Schema for fields relating to investigation fields. These are user defined fields we use to highlight in various features in the UI such as alert details flyout and exceptions auto-population from alert.

Hide investigation_fields attribute Show investigation_fields attribute object

field_names array[string(nonempty)] Required

A string that does not contain only whitespace characters

At least 1 element. Minimum length of each is 1.

license string

The rule's license.

max_signals integer Required

Maximum number of alerts the rule can create during a single run (the rule’s Max alerts per run advanced setting value).

This setting can be superseded by the Kibana configuration setting xpack.alerting.rules.run.alerts.max, which determines the maximum alerts generated by any rule in the Kibana alerting framework. For example, if xpack.alerting.rules.run.alerts.max is set to 1000, the rule can generate no more than 1000 alerts even if max_signals is set higher.

Minimum value is 1. Default value is 100.

meta object

Placeholder for metadata about the rule.

This field is overwritten when you save changes to the rule’s settings.

Additional properties are allowed.

A human-readable name for the rule.

Minimum length is 1.

Notes to help investigate alerts produced by the rule.

outcome string

Values are exactMatch, aliasMatch, or conflict.

output_index string Deprecated

(deprecated) Has no effect.

references array[string] Required

Array containing notes about or references to relevant information about the rule. Defaults to an empty array.

related_integrations array[object] Required

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.

A string that does not contain only whitespace characters

Minimum length is 1.

required_fields array[object] Required

Elasticsearch fields and their types that need to be present for the rule to function.

The value of required_fields does not affect the rule’s behavior, and specifying it incorrectly won’t cause the rule to fail. Use required_fields as an informational property to document the fields that the rule expects to be present in the data.

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.
