General naming conventions

Cortex XSIAM naming conventions for integrations, commands, and outputs.

When naming integrations, commands, arguments and outputs, use the following conventions:

Cortex XSIAM naming conventions

  • Integration parameters

    Use brief and clear names with snake_case. Example: min_severity

  • Command names

    Use kebab-case with the structure !vendor-action-object. Example: !helloworld-get-alert

  • Command arguments

    Use brief and clear names with snake_case. Example: alert_id.

  • Command outputs

    Use PascalCase with the structure Vendor.Object.data for the Vendor and Object block. Example: HelloWorld.Alert.owner.name

    After the Vendor and Object blocks, use the same format as your product's API, but do not include any spaces or dots in the key names, as dots are interpreted as object separators. For example, Cortex XSIAM correctly parses:

    ```json
    {
      "HelloWorld": {
        "Alert": {
          "owner": {
              "name": "Francesco",
              "email": "francesco@cortex.local"
          }
        }
      }
    }
    ```
    as:
    ```
    HelloWorld.Alert.owner.name: "Francesco"
    HelloWorld.Alert.owner.email: "francesco@cortex.local"
    ```

    Cortex XSIAM does NOT correctly parse:

    ```json
        {
      "HelloWorld": {
        "Alert": {
          "owner.name": "Francesco",
          "owner.email": "francesco@cortexl.local"
        }
      }
    }
    ```
