we have created custom description UDM filed which needs to be updated using playbook with user information.

  • Question - can we update UDM field?
  • question : how to update alert description ? i can see action to update case description but not alert description ?

 

UDM fields or Event fields in the SOAR cannot be directly edited with a playbook because they are coming from the SIEM and that is our source of truth if you will. 

What you are able to do though is use an action called set context value and get context value. This can be used to store information that you want to use later within your playbook or possibly even a widget. 


To answer your 2nd question around alert description can you post a screenshot of what field you are trying to update? I need a little more info in order to answer that question fully.
