• Update to Google-provided v1 API client libraries.
• Move your client libraries and HTTP/grpc calls to v1 by following instructions in the reference documentation for service endpoints and SDK configuration.
• If you call this service using your own libraries, follow the guidance in our Security Command Center API Overview when making API requests.
• To use ListFindings calls in the v1 API, update your response handling to respond to an extra layer of object nesting, as shown below:
  • v1beta1: response.getFindings().forEach( x -> ....)
  • v1: response.getListFindingsResults().forEach(x -> { x.getFinding(); .... })

Additional changes to the v1 API are listed below. Learn more about Using the Security Command Center API.

The SeverityLevel finding source property for all Security Health Analytics findings will be removed and replaced with a field named Severity, which retains the same values.

• Impact: Finding notification filters, post-processing, and alerting based on the SeverityLevel finding source property will no longer be possible.
• Recommendation: Replace the SeverityLevel finding source property with the Severity finding attribute property to retain existing functionality.

The nodePools finding source property will be removed from the OVER_PRIVILEGED_SCOPES findings and replaced with a source property named VulnerableNodePools.

• Impact: Finding notification filters, post-processing and alerting based on this finding source property may fail.
• Recommendation: Modify workflows as necessary to utilize the new VulnerableNodePools source property.

The finding category of 2SV_NOT_ENFORCED is being renamed MFA_NOT_ENFORCED.

• Impact: Case-sensitive finding notification filters, post-processing, and alerting based on the previous finding category name may fail.
• Recommendation: Update any post-processing to use the new category name.

The ExceptionInstructions source property will be removed from all Security Health Analytics findings.

• Impact: Finding notification filters, post-processing, and alerting based on the finding source property may fail.
• In progress: A new property that will indicate the current state of findings is being developed.

The ProjectId source property from all Security Health Analytics findings will be removed.

• Impact: Finding notification filters, post-processing, and alerting based on the finding source property may fail.
• Recommendation: Update workflows to utilize the project id in the resource.project_display_name field of a ListFindingsResult.

The AssetSettings finding source property from PUBLIC_SQL_INSTANCE, SQL_PUBLIC_IP, SSL_NOT_ENFORCED, AUTO_BACKUP_DISABLED, SQL_NO_ROOT_PASSWORD, SQL_WEAK_ROOT_PASSWORD finding types will be removed, as it contains data duplicated from the asset entity.

• Impact: Finding notification filters, post-processing, and alerting based on the finding source property will fail.
• Recommendation: Replacing the AssetSettings finding source property with the Settings resource property from the asset underlying the finding will retain existing functionality.

The Allowed finding source property from OPEN_FIREWALL findings will be replaced with changed a new field named ExternallyAccessibleProtocolsAndPorts, which will contain a subset of the values from the Allowed property.

• Impact: Finding notification filters, post-processing, and alerting based on the finding source property will fail.
• Recommendation: Modify your workflows as necessary to utilize the new ExternallyAccessibleProtocolsAndPorts source property.

The SourceRanges finding source property from findings in OPEN_FIREWALL findings will be replaced with a new ExternalSourceRanges, which will contain a subset of the values from the SourceRanges property.

• Impact: Finding notification filters, post-processing and alerting based on the finding source property will fail.
• Recommendation: Modify your workflows as necessary to utilize the new ExternalSourceRanges source property.

As of Jan. 31, 2021, the UpdateFinding API will no longer support storing string properties that are longer than 7,000 characters.

• Impact: Calls to UpdateFinding that seek to store string properties longer than 7,000 characters will be rejected with an invalid argument error.
• Recommendation: Consider storing string properties longer than 7,000 characters as JSON structs or JSON lists. Learn more about writing findings.

As of Sept. 1, 2020, the ListFindings API will no longer support searching on finding properties that are longer than 7,000 characters.

• Impact: Searches on strings that are longer than 7,000 characters will not return expected results. For example, if a partial string match filter has a match at the 7,005th character on a property in a finding, that finding will not be returned because that match is past the 7,000-character threshold. An exception will not be returned.
• Recommendation: Customers can remove filter restrictions (e.g. x : "some-value") that are supposed to match very long properties. The results can then be filtered locally to remove findings whose strings do not match designated criteria. Learn more about filtering findings.

The OffendingIamRoles source property in extensions of IAM Scanner Configurations will use structured data instead of a JSON-formatted string.

• Impact: Finding notification filters, post-processing, and alerting based on the finding source property will need to be updated to take advantage of the new data type on findings of the following categories: ADMIN_SERVICE_ACCOUNT, NON_ORG_IAM_MEMBER, PRIMITIVE_ROLES_USED, OVER_PRIVILEGED_SERVICE_ACCOUNT_USER, REDIS_ROLE_USED_ON_ORG, SERVICE_ACCOUNT_ROLE_SEPARATION, KMS_ROLE_SEPARATION.
• Recommendation: Update workflows to utilize the new data type.

The QualifiedLogMetricNames source property in specific Monitoring findings from Security Health Analytics will use a list instead of a character-separated string value.

• Impact: Finding notification filters, post-processing and alerting based on the finding source property will need to be updated to take advantage of the new data type for findings of the following categories: AUDIT_CONFIG_NOT_MONITORED, BUCKET_IAM_NOT_MONITORED, CUSTOM_ROLE_NOT_MONITORED, FIREWALL_NOT_MONITORED, NETWORK_NOT_MONITORED, OWNER_NOT_MONITORED, ROUTE_NOT_MONITORED, SQL_INSTANCE_NOT_MONITORED.
• Recommendation: Update workflows to utilize the new data type.

The AlertPolicyFailureReasons source property in specific Monitoring findings from Security Health Analytics will use a list instead of a character-separated string value.

• Impact: Finding notification filters, post-processing and alerting based on the finding source property will need to be updated to take advantage of the new data type for findings of the following categories: AUDIT_CONFIG_NOT_MONITORED, BUCKET_IAM_NOT_MONITORED, CUSTOM_ROLE_NOT_MONITORED, FIREWALL_NOT_MONITORED, NETWORK_NOT_MONITORED, OWNER_NOT_MONITORED, ROUTE_NOT_MONITORED, SQL_INSTANCE_NOT_MONITORED.
• Recommendation: Update workflows to utilize the new data type.

The CompatibleFeatures source property in WEAK_SSL_POLICY findings will use a list instead of a character-separated string value.

• Impact: Finding notification filters, post-processing, and alerting based on the finding source property will need to be updated to take advantage of the new data type for findings.
• Recommendation: Update workflows to utilize the new data type.
