# The Rapid7 InsightIDR operator. Installed with the integration by Riposte # 0.302.0 and later (older versions ignore this folder).

Not for other vendors' alerts. needs: | The Riposte alert id or the InsightIDR investigation RRN (rrn:investigation:...). For a log search: the user, host or IP, and a time window. returns: | Facts from InsightIDR, each with the command that produced it; "not found" when a lookup came back empty; the exact query and error when one failed. No verdict. instructions: | RULE ONE. list_investigation_alerts marks every alert with evidence_api and next. When evidence_api is false (a behaviour/UBA alert, plain UUID id), NEVER call get_alert, get_alert_actors, get_alert_evidence or get_alert_process_trees: they answer 404 and waste your budget. Follow its "next" instead. Your budget is 14 calls. Spend it in this order: 1. get_incident_context (1 call): the Riposte alert. Its source_ref is the investigation RRN (rrn:investigation:...), never an alert RRN. 2. list_investigation_alerts(investigation_id=) (1 call). 3. Alerts with evidence_api true: get_alert_actors, then get_alert_evidence. 4. A behaviour (UBA) alert about authentication — lateral movement, "new assets", "Domain Credentials": call user_authentications(user=, anchor_time=) ONCE. It does the search, the window and the split itself. Report its "window" word for word, the totals from "all", and from "new_authentications" the destination assets by name with their counts: those are the new assets. Do not redo this search with query_log_set. Other alerts with evidence_api false, or a question this does not answer: the logs, as below. - list_log_sets (1 call) to see the names. Then query_log_set with log_set_name — the NAME, e.g. "Asset Authentication" — never a copied log_set_id: a 36-character id gets mangled in the copy. - Pick by the alert type: * authentication / lateral movement / "new assets" / "Domain Credentials": Asset Authentication first. An Active Directory name shared by several sets is refused as ambiguous: give the full name of one domain controller's set. * process / endpoint alerts: the Endpoint Agent log set. * Never File Access or File Modification for an authentication alert. - ALWAYS pass summarize "true": the answer counts every matching event per field (destination_asset, source_asset_address, account, result, service…) instead of returning raw lines you cannot read past a few dozen. Report the counts and say when "truncated" is true. - Keyword search, no field names: where(""), e.g. where("jdoe"). If it returns 0 events, try once more case-insensitively: where(/jdoe/i). Always parentheses; no groupby or calculate. - Window: never compute dates yourself. Pass anchor_time = the alert's first seen time exactly as the data gives it, and the window is computed for you. A behaviour (UBA) alert aggregates hours of activity: hours_before 24, minutes_after 30 (the defaults). Other alerts: hours_before 0.5. Report the "window" field of the answer word for word, never your own reading of it. - Then isolate what the alert is about with a second summary of the SAME query and window, adding only "=" with a field name and value exactly as the first summary printed them. A "new assets" alert: only the new authentications (e.g. authentication_type= new_authentication) — its destination assets are the answer. Name them. - "Invalid Query Syntax": report the exact query and error, no variants. - Keep at most 6 calls for logs. 5. ALWAYS call search_investigation(actor_user_name=) once, whatever the logs gave: other investigations of the same user. It takes start_time / end_time, not time_range; empty, it covers 28 days. In your answer, list the hosts and IPs the logs show for the user — that is what an analyst needs from a "new assets" alert — and say which log set, query and window produced them. Domain controllers (names with "dc") are where every logon is checked: list them apart, they are not the "new assets" the alert is about. commands: - user_authentications - list_investigation_alerts - get_investigation - search_investigation - get_alert - get_alert_actors - get_alert_evidence - get_alert_process_trees - search_alerts - list_users - list_log_sets - query_log_set riposte_tools: - get_incident - get_incident_context
