Alert Filters

Renamed API

The Alert Filter Plans API was previously called V1 Maintenance Plans or V1 Plans. The functionality of the API has not changed, but the name has been updated to clarify which BigPanda feature the API manages.

The Alert Filter Plans API enables users to set and maintain alert filters to reduce noise for operators.

Plans are configured with BPQL queries and, once activated, will suppress alerts that match the criteria.

The Alert Filters API can be used to manage Alert Filters that have been configured in the BigPanda API. Alert filters affect alerts after they have been normalized and enriched, enabling complex filters based on additional metadata and enrichment tags. The plan ID for alert filters is the last 24 characters in the filter URL.

Alert Filter Schedules define a start and stop time frame for the alert filter. If a filter does not have a schedule defined, it will start immediately and run indefinitely - filtering all matching alerts until deactivated.

Schedule ID

The schedule ID is needed to add the schedule to a filter.

Authentication

All BigPanda APIs require Bearer Token Authorization in the call headers.

This API uses the Org Token type of Authorization token.

BigPanda recommends adding Authentication headers only in the secure tool you use to make API calls.
