# Log type APIs
|
||||
|
||||
The log type APIs allow you to create a custom log type, search custom log types, update custom log types, and delete custom log types.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
## Create log type
|
||||
|
||||
Creating a new custom log type involves entering a name and a description and specifying the source as `Custom`.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
### Example request
|
||||
|
||||
```json
|
||||
POST /_plugins/_security_analytics/logtype
|
||||
{
|
||||
"description": "custom-log-type-desc",
|
||||
"name": "custom-log-type4",
|
||||
"source": "Custom"
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
{% include copy-curl.html %}
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
### Example response
|
||||
|
||||
```json
|
||||
{
|
||||
"_id": "m98uk4kBlb9cbROIpEj2",
|
||||
"_version": 1,
|
||||
"logType": {
|
||||
"name": "custom-log-type4",
|
||||
"description": "custom-log-type-desc",

"source": "Custom",

||||
"tags": {
|
||||
"correlation_id": 27
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
## Search custom log types
|
||||
|
||||
This API allows you to search log types in the system.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
### Example request
|
||||
|
||||
```json

||||
|
||||

|
||||
|
||||
## Delete custom log type
|
||||
|
||||
This API is used to delete a custom log type. Specify the log type's ID in the route to run the operation:
|
||||
|
||||
```json
|
||||
DELETE /_plugins/_security_analytics/logtype/<log_type_id>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
### Example request
|
||||
|
||||
```json
|
||||
DELETE /_plugins/_security_analytics/logtype/m98uk4kBlb9cbROIpEj2
|
||||
```
|
||||
{% include copy-curl.html %}
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
### Example response
|
||||
|

```json

||||
200 OK

{
|
||||
"_id": "m98uk4kBlb9cbROIpEj2",
|
||||
"_version": 1
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Only custom log types can be deleted. Trying to delete a standard OpenSearch-defined log type results in an error.

# Creating custom log types
|
||||
|
||||
Log types represent the different sources of data used for threat detection in Security Analytics. In addition to the standard log types supported by Security Analytics, you can create custom log types for your threat detectors. Follow the steps provided here to create a custom log type.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
## The Log types page
|
||||
|
||||
To navigate to the **Log types** page, select **Log types** under **Detectors** in the navigation menu. The following image shows the **Log types** landing page.

||||

||||
<img src="{{site.url}}{{site.baseurl}}/images/Security/c-log-type.png" alt="The Log types landing page." width="85%">
|
||||
|
||||
The table that lists the log types provides the name of the log type, its description, and identifies whether it's a standard OpenSearch-defined log type or a custom log type. The following list describes the main features found on the **Log types** page and the actions you can take:
|
||||
|
||||
* Select the log type **Name** to open the log type's details page. The **Details** tab is shown by default. This tab includes the log type's ID. You can also select the **Detection rules** tab to show all detection rules associated with the log type.
|
||||
* In the **Actions** column, you can select the trash can icon ({::nomarkdown}<img src="{{site.url}}{{site.baseurl}}/images/alerting/trash-can-icon.png" class="inline-icon" alt="trash can icon"/>{:/}) to delete a custom log type (you cannot delete a standard OpenSearch-defined log type). Follow the prompts to confirm and safely remove the custom log type.
|
||||
* Select **Create log type** in the upper-right corner of the screen to begin creating a custom log type. The **Create log type** page opens. Continue with the steps in the section that follows to create a custom log type.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
## Creating a custom log type
|
||||
|
||||
After selecting **Create log type** on the **Log types** page, the **Create log type** page opens and provides the necessary fields for creating a new log type:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Enter a name for the log type.
|
||||
|
||||
The log type name supports characters a--z (lowercase), 0--9, hyphens, and underscores.
|
||||
{: .note }
|
||||
|
||||
1. Enter a description for the log type.
|
||||

[Amazon Security Lake](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/security-lake/latest/userguide/what-is-security-lake.html) converts security log and event data to the [Open Cybersecurity Schema Framework](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/security-lake/latest/userguide/open-cybersecurity-schema-framework.html) (OCSF) to normalize combined data and facilitate its management. OpenSearch supports ingestion of log data from Security Lake in the OCSF format, and Security Analytics can automatically map fields from OCSF to ECS (the default field-mapping schema).
|
||||
|
||||
The Security Lake log types that can be used as log sources for detector creation include CloudTrail, Route 53, and VPC Flow. Given that Route 53 is a log that captures DNS activity, its log type should be specified as **DNS logs** when [defining a detector](#step-1-define-a-detector). Furthermore, because logs such as CloudTrail can conceivably be captured in both raw format and OCSF, it's good practice to name indexes in a way that keeps these logs separate and easily identifiable. This becomes helpful when specifying an index name in any of the APIs associated with Security Analytics.

Before Security Analytics can begin generating findings and sending alerts, administrators must create detectors and make log data available to the system. Once detectors are able to generate findings, you can fine-tune your alerts to focus on specific areas of interest. The following steps outline the basic workflow for setting up components in Security Analytics.
|
||||
|

1. Create security detectors and alerts, and ingest log data. See [Creating detectors]({{site.url}}{{site.baseurl}}/security-analytics/sec-analytics-config/detectors-config/) for details.

1. Consider [creating correlation rules]({{site.url}}{{site.baseurl}}/security-analytics/sec-analytics-config/correlation-config/) to identify connections between events and possible threats occurring in different logs throughout your system.
|

1. Inspect findings generated from detector output and create any additional alerts.

1. If desired, create custom rules by duplicating and then modifying pre-packaged rules. See [Customizing rules]({{site.url}}{{site.baseurl}}/security-analytics/usage/rules/#customizing-rules) for details.
