Question

After importing configuration export with EXCHANGE connector and it configuration into another FortiSOAR system, does the system ingestion scheduled playbook for exchange connector start automatically OR we need to start manually system ingestion schedule for exchange connector

 

Imagine the scenario, if this system ingestion scheduled playbook for exchange connector starts automatically, then it would read the inbox of staging environment in production and  sends notifications to production SOC team.

    An ingest configuration is imported and triggered in the same way as from where it is exported.

    In this case, the product env will start reading the staging environment. In such cases it will be the responsibility of the user to properly configure the ingestion in Prod ENV after the import is complete.

    One way is to configure the prod mailbox in the staging env. Verify that it works. Export from there. Import the configuration into the prod env. and then update the configuration in staging. This way you can avoid updating prod configuration

    I had the same idea for the workaround, but when we are working on 20 integrations with squeezed timeline to meet, better would be if we make scheduled playbooks inactive, after importing  configuration export.

     

    Please consider this as an enhancement.
