# Lists

After creating a list in Cortex XSIAM, you can download it and add it to your content pack.

1. In Cortex XSIAM, when viewing a list, click the more options icon (three vertical dots) to **Download list**.
2. Add `list-` to the beginning of the file name and change the file extension to `.json`. For example, for a JSON list, rename the file `list-mylistname.json`.
3. Edit the file to change the `id` field to be identical to the `name` field. and edit the value in the `version` field to `-1` to prevent user changes.

   Your JSON file should include the following:

   ```programlisting
   id: <name of your list>
   version: -1
   name: <name of your list>
   ```
4. Save your list in the lists directory: `Packs/<pack_name>/Lists/`.

{% hint style="info" %}

### Note

If you download the list via the `demisto-sdk download` command, you do not need to change the file extension, as it downloads as `mylist.json`.
{% endhint %}

The following is an example of a list-checked\_integrations.json file.

```programlisting
    {
        "allRead": false,
        "allReadWrite": false,
        "data": "Cylance Protect v2_instance_1,Core REST API_instance_1,Image OCR_default_instance,McAfee ESM v2_instance_1,Microsoft Defender Advanced Threat Protection_instance_2,Rasterize_default_instance,Trend Micro Deep Security_instance_1,Where is the egg?_default_instance,d2,fcm_default_instance,vt,ad-login,ad-query,splunk",
        "dbotCreatedBy": "",
        "description": "",
        "fromVersion": "6.5.0",
        "hasRole": false,
        "id": "checked integrations",

        "truncated": false,
        "type": "plain_text",
        "version": -1
    }
```

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://cortex-docs.paloaltonetworks.com/cortex-xsiam-developer-guide/cortex-xsiam-development-guide/lists.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
