Examples#

Creation of a simple case:

curl -XPOST -H 'Authorization: Bearer ***API*KEY***' -H 'Content-Type: application/json' http://127.0.0.1:9000/api/case -d '{
  "title": "My first case",
  "description": "This case has been created by my custom script"
}'
It returns:
{
  "severity": 3,
  "createdBy": "myuser",
  "createdAt": 1488918582777,
  "caseId": 1,
  "title": "My first case",
  "startDate": 1488918582836,
  "owner": "myuser",
  "status": "Open",
  "description": "This case has been created by my custom script",
  "user": "myuser",
  "tlp": 2,
  "flag": false,
  "id": "AVqqdpY2yQ6w1DNC8aDh",
  "_id": "AVqqdpY2yQ6w1DNC8aDh",
  "_type":"case"
}

Creation of another case:

curl -XPOST -H 'Authorization: Bearer ***API*KEY***' -H 'Content-Type: application/json' http://127.0.0.1:9000/api/case -d '{
  "title": "My second case",
  "description": "This case has been created by my custom script, its severity is high, tlp is red and it contains tags",
  "severity": 3,
  "tlp": 3,
  "tags": ["automatic", "creation"]
}'

Creating a case with Tasks & Customfields:

curl -XPOST -H 'Authorization: Bearer ***API*KEY***' -H 'Content-Type: application/json' http://127.0.0.1:9000/api/case -d '{
    "title": "My first case",
    "description": "This case has been created by my custom script"
    "tasks": [{
        "title": "mytask",
        "description": "description of my task"
    }],
    "customFields": {
        "cvss": {
            "number": 9,
        },
        "businessImpact": {
            "string": "HIGH"
        }
    }
}'
For the customFields object, the attribute names should correspond to the ExternalReference (cvss and businessImpact in the example above) not to the name of custom fields.
