Service detection API - PUT an opaque web service rule

Updates an existing service detection rule for opaque and external web services.

If a rule with the specified ID doesn’t exist, a new rule is created and appended to the end of the rule list.

The request keeps the existing order of rules unless the order parameter is set.

The request consumes and produces an application/json payload.

Parameters

Refer to JSON models to find all JSON models that depend on the type of the model.

Parameter Type Description In Required
id string

The ID of the rule to be updated.

 path required
body OpaqueAndExternalWebServiceRule

The JSON body of the request containing updated parameters of the service detection rule.

 body optional

Body format

The OpaqueAndExternalWebServiceRule object

The service detection rule of the OPAQUE_AND_EXTERNAL_WEB_SERVICE type

Element Type Description Required
type string

The type of the service detection rule.

 required
managementZones string[]

The management zone (specified by the ID) of the process group for which this service detection rule should be created.

You can specify only 1 management zone here.

 optional
id string

The ID of the service detection rule.

 optional
order string

The order of the rule in the rules list.

The rules are evaluated from top to bottom. The first matching rule applies.

 optional
name string

The name of the rule.

 required
description string

A short description of the rule.

 optional
enabled boolean

The rule is enabled(true) or disabled (false).

 required
conditions ConditionsOpaqueAndExternalWebServiceAttributeTypeDto[]

A list of conditions of the rule.

If several conditions are specified, the AND logic applies.

 optional
detectAsWebRequestService boolean

Detect the matching requests as web services (false) or web request services (true).

Setting this field to true prevents detecting of matching requests as opaque web services. An opaque web request service is created instead. If you need to further modify the resulting web request service, you need to create a separate rule of the OPAQUE_AND_EXTERNAL_WEB_REQUEST type.

Default is false, detecting matching requests as opaque web services.

 optional
urlPath UrlPath optional
port Port optional

The Port object

The contribution to the service ID calculation from the port, where the web request has been detected.

Element Type Description Required
doNotUseForServiceId boolean

The port is used (false) or isn't used (true) in the service ID calculation.

 optional

The UrlPath object

The contribution from the URL, where the web request has been detected, into service ID calculation.

You have two mutually exclusive options:

  • Override the detected value with a specified static value. Specify the new value in the valueOverride field.
  • Dynamically transform the detected value. Specify the transformation parameters in the transformations field.
Element Type Description Required
transformations TransformationBase[]

Transformations to be applied to the detected value.

 optional
valueOverride string

The value to be used instead of the detected value.

 optional

The TransformationBase object

Configuration of transformation of the detected value.

If several transformations are specified, they are handled sequentially from top to bottom. Each transformation is applied to the result of the preceding transformation. For example, the second transformation is applied to the result of the first transformation.

The actual set of fields depends on the type of the transformation.

Element Type Description Required
type string

Defines the actual set of fields depending on the value. See one of the following objects:

  • BEFORE -> BeforeTransformation
  • AFTER -> AfterTransformation
  • BETWEEN -> BetweenTransformation
  • REPLACE_BETWEEN -> ReplaceBetweenTransformation
  • REMOVE_NUMBERS -> RemoveNumbersTransformation
  • REMOVE_CREDIT_CARDS -> RemoveCreditCardNumbersTransformation
  • REMOVE_IBANS -> RemoveIBANsTransformation
  • REMOVE_IPS -> RemoveIPsTransformation
  • SPLIT_SELECT -> SplitSelectTransformation
  • TAKE_SEGMENTS -> TakeSegmentsTransformation
