How Integration Commands Work

Integration commands provide resources for tools integration authors to:

• Build context-sensitive commands that you can run locally or on multiple, remote target servers, and you can mix, match, and re-use with configurations.

• Associate parameters with commands to read the resources for which you call the commands. Command parameters make use of Velocity Expressions to pick up values from fields and resources. (See Velocity Templates.)

• Define configurations sets of commands) for various external applications to specify relevant contexts, commands, rendering formats, and, optionally, remote targets.

Once integration commands and configurations are in place, analysts and operators working with the ArcSight Console can use your custom-built commands or ArcSight pre-built commands for Logger to manage and monitor networks and assets with an extended reach into other views, toolkits, and servers.

Configure Login credentials for authentication on external applications through integration parameters on the user resource. See Setting User Login Parameters and Setting Logins and Other Parameters to Prompt for Values at Runtime.)
