Content subchapters

Reporting subchapters created from audit trail content (statistics of search keywords, and screenshots). You have to provide a list of keywords, and create the appropriate filters to narrow down the scope of the search. SPS searches the indexed content of all audit trails that fit the filter criteria, and provide the resulting statistics and screenshots in the report.

Configure and enable indexing for all connections that you want to include in the reports.

URL
GET https://<IP-address-of-SPS>/api/configuration/reporting/content_subchapters
Cookies
Cookie name Description Required Values
session_id Contains the authentication token of the user Required

The value of the session ID cookie received from the REST server in the authentication response, for example, a1f71d030e657634730b9e887cb59a5e56162860. For details on authentication, see Authenticate to the SPS REST API.

Note that this session ID refers to the connection between the REST client and the SPS REST API. It is not related to the sessions that SPS records (and which also have a session ID, but in a different format).

Status and error codes

The following table lists the typical status and error codes for this request. For a complete list of error codes, see Application level error codes.

Code Description Notes
201 Created The new resource was successfully created.
400 InvalidQuery The requested filter or its value is invalid.
400

Path: <endpoint>/filter/channel_policy

Type: SyntacticError

You have included the key and meta elements of a channel_policy in a PUT or POST request.
401 Unauthenticated The requested resource cannot be retrieved because the client is not authenticated and the resource requires authorization to access it. The details section contains the path that was attempted to be accessed, but could not be retrieved.
403 Unauthorized The requested resource cannot be retrieved because the client is not authorized to access it. The details section contains the path that was attempted to be accessed, but could not be retrieved.
404 NotFound The requested object does not exist.
Add a content subchapter

To add a content subchapter, you have to:

  1. Open a transaction.

    For more information, see Open a transaction.

  2. Create the JSON object for the new content subchapter.

    POST the JSON object to the https://<IP-address-of-SPS>/api/configuration/reporting/content_subchapters/ endpoint. You can find a detailed description of the available parameters listed in Element .

    • To use a channel policy for filtering, use the key of the policy. You must also set the protocol element to the corresponding protocol.

      For example, to use the shell-only channel policy, which is a default SSH policy provided by SPS, you have to configure both the channel_policy element…

      "channel_policy": "-10000"

      …and the protocol element:

      "protocol": "ssh"

    If the POST request is successful, the response includes the key of the new subchapter. For example:

    {
      "key": "416bb324-b44e-4ed3-a49d-02e99e53e941",
      "meta": {
        "href": "/api/configuration/reporting/content_subchapters/416bb324-b44e-4ed3-a49d-02e99e53e941",
        "parent": "/api/configuration/reporting/content_subchapters",
        "transaction": "/api/transaction"
      }
    }
  3. Commit your changes.

    For more information, see Commit a transaction.

Modify a content subchapter

To modify a content subchapter, you have to:

  1. Open a transaction.

    For more information, see Open a transaction.

  2. Modify the JSON object of the subchapter.

    You can find a detailed description of the available parameters listed in Element

    To use a channel policy for filtering, do not include the returned key and meta elements of the channel policy in your PUT request. Instead, set the value of the channel_policy to the value of its key.

    For example, if a GET request for the subchapter returns the following channel_policy filter:

    "channel_policy": {
      "key": "-10200",
      "meta": {
        "href": "/api/configuration/ssh/channel_policies/-10200"
      }
    }

    You have to change it in your PUT request to:

    "channel_policy": "-10200"

    You must also configure the protocol element to the protocol of the channel policy.

  3. Upload the modified configuration

    PUT the modified JSON object to the https://<IP-address-of-SPS>/api/configuration/reporting/content_subchapters/<subchapter-key> endpoint.

  4. Commit your changes.

    For more information, see Commit a transaction.

Caution:

Generating a report that includes an Advanced statistics chapter that returns several thousands of entries requires significant CPU and memory resources from One Identity Safeguard for Privileged Sessions (SPS). While generating such a partial report, the web interface of SPS can become slow or unresponsive.

Examples:

Create a bar chart with a custom title for the y-axis:

"chart": {
  "type": "bar",
  "y_axis_title": "Y_axis"
}

Create a pie chart:

"chart": {
  "type": "pie"
}

Create a list with custom column names:

"chart": {
  "column_titles": [
    "col1",
    "col2"
  ],
  "type": "list"
}
