Batch Import

Batch import lets you paste a list of indicators (one per line) and add them as attributes to an event in a single operation. Each line is automatically detected and classified by type.

How it works

Paste raw indicators (one per line)
Auto-detect type & category for each line
Review preview — override type/category per line if needed
Import all valid attributes into the event

Using batch import

  1. Open an event and click the (Import Data) button.
  2. Paste indicators into the text area, one per line. Detection runs automatically as you type.
  3. A summary bar shows total lines, valid count, and invalid count.
  4. Detected types badges show how many indicators were found per type.

Auto-detection

Each line is matched against a set of built-in patterns:

Type Example
sha256 e3b0c44298fc1c149afbf4c8996fb92427ae41e4649b934ca495991b7852b855
sha1 da39a3ee5e6b4b0d3255bfef95601890afd80709
md5 d41d8cd98f00b204e9800998ecf8427e
ip-src (CIDR) 192.168.1.0/24
ip-dst 8.8.8.8
url https://evil.example.com/payload
domain evil.example.com

Lines that don't match any pattern are flagged as invalid and skipped during import.

Overriding detected types

Per-line override

In the preview table, each line has type and category dropdowns. Change them to correct a misdetection or assign a more specific type.

Global override

Check Override detected type & category to force a single type and category for all lines. A warning banner confirms the override is active.

Preview

The preview table shows each parsed line with its value, detected (or overridden) type, and category. Results are paginated when the list is large.

Submitting

Click Import to create the attributes. The backend returns a summary:

{
  "message": "Imported 42 out of 45 attributes.",
  "imported_attributes": 42,
  "total_attributes": 45,
  "failed_attributes": 3,
  "event_uuid": "..."
}

Imported attributes inherit the event's distribution level and default to the External analysis category when no category is specified.
