Question

Playbook Button Widget URI

Hi all, 

 

Does anyone know if there is a way to trigger the Playbook button through a URI? or a methodology to perform a playbook execution via the API of SOAR?

 

Thanks,

Hi,

If the playbook requires an associated record (for example, an Alert or an Indicator), then triggering it directly via API does not seem feasible in that context, since the execution depends on the record’s internal context and bindings.

However, if the playbook does not require any specific record context, you can trigger it externally by using the endpoint shown in the screenshot. By capturing the request sent to that endpoint and replicating it through the API, the playbook execution can be initiated from outside the platform.

Hope this helps.

@enescalban thank you for the response. As the above is dynamic for each new incident I don't think right now this is possible, unless the widget is modified.
