Alert → Unmerge

AI-generated

Overview

This node operation 'Unmerge' under the 'Alert' resource is designed to unmerge an alert from a case in a DFIR IRIS Incident Response Platform. It is useful in scenarios where an alert has been incorrectly merged into a case and needs to be separated back into its original state or associated with a different case. For example, if an alert was mistakenly linked to the wrong case, this operation allows the user to specify the alert ID and the target case ID to unmerge the alert accordingly.

Use Case Examples

  1. Unmerging an alert from a case to correct case associations in an incident response workflow.
  2. Separating alerts that were merged by mistake to maintain accurate case records.

Properties

Name Meaning
Alert ID The unique identifier of the alert to be unmerged from a case.
Target Case ID The ID of the case to which the alert should be unmerged or reassigned.
Options Additional options to customize the unmerge operation, including whether to return the raw response, which fields to include in the response, and whether to exclude the selected fields instead.

Output

JSON

Troubleshooting

  • Ensure that the Alert ID and Target Case ID are valid and exist in the system to avoid errors.
