Response Description

An array of restore objects. Restore objects contain the following fields:
  • id - Long - The ID of the restore.
  • initiated_by - String - The user or authorized service that initiated the restore.
  • host_id - Long - The host that was restored. For more information, see the following Hosts API:

  • time_completed - Long - The number of milliseconds since epoch when the restore completed.
  • status - Enumeration - The status of the restore. The following values are available: PENDING, REQUESTING, INITIALIZING, IN_PROGRESS, FAILED, SUCCESS.
    • PENDING: This is the initial state of the restore once it is created. From this state the restore can be updated to the REQUESTING state.
    • REQUESTING: After the status is set to REQUESTING, a restore request is sent to the Backup and Restore Engine to initialize it as a new restore.
    • INITIALIZING: After the restore request is received by the Backup and Restore Engine it will update the status to INITIALIZING.
    • IN_PROGRESS: After the restore process begins the status will be updated to IN_PROGRESS.
    • FAILED: If the restore has completed with errors the status will be updated to FAILED.
    • SUCCESS: If the restore has completed without errors the status will be updated to SUCCESS.
  • is_cross_deployment_restore - Boolean - If the associated backup is being restored on a different Console with a set of new managed hosts, the condition is set to 'true'; otherwise, the condition is set to 'false'.
  • backup_id - Long - The ID of the backup associated with the restore. Once the restore completes this value will be updated to null.
  • backup_name - String - The name of the backup that was restored.
  • backup_version - String - The QRadar version that corresponds to the backup that was restored.
  • backup_type - Enumeration - The backup type that was restored. This value will always be CONFIG.
  • backup_filename - String - The filename of the backup that was restored.

    • CUSTOM_RULES_CONFIG: Restores custom rules, reference sets, reference data, and saved searches. If you have rules that depend on items other than reference data and saved searches, you need to use DEPLOYMENT_CONFIG in addition to CUSTOM_RULES_CONFIG for rules to be fully functional.
    • DEPLOYMENT_CONFIG: Restores the deployment model and administrator controlled settings and content. This group includes, but is not limited to the following content: domains, log sources, flow sources, system settings, and forwarding rules.
    • USERS_CONFIG: Restores users, authorized services, user roles, security profiles, and dashboards.
    • LICENSE_CONFIG: NEEDS DESCRIPTION
