ObserveIT

Integration version: 4.0

Use Cases

Ingest ObserveIT alerts and use them to create Google Security Operations alerts. Next, in Google SecOps, alerts can be used to perform orchestrations with playbooks or manual analysis.

Generate Client ID and Client Secret

Note: ObserveIT has a bug, where it would authenticate integration, even if invalid Client ID is specified. It happens because the backend in ObserveIT only validates the first 36 characters and everything else is ignored. For example, if AAAAAAA-AAAA-AAAA-AAAA-AAAAAAAAAAAAA is known valid Client ID, if you use AAAAAAA-AAAA-AAAA-AAAA-AAAAAAAAAABBBBB it will still let you to authenticate.

1. Go to https://:/v2/apps/portal/home.html?#creds.
2. Press on the "+ Create App" button

3. Fill out the "Application Name" parameter.

   

4. Press on the "Save".

5. You will find a new ObserveIT application. Press on it and you will see this window.

   

6. Copy "Client Id" and "Client Secret".

7. Use these values in the integration configuration.
