Management API for inline rules

DFONG — Thu, 09 May 2024 03:42:03 GMT

Hi Guys,

I am trying to use management API to add rules in batch.

I manage to add the inline layer by using the "add access-rule", but I need to add the inline layer manually before I add rule using "add access-rule", not sure is there any API to help add the inline layer?

Beside that, I cant find the API to add/set rule in the inline layer.

Can someone give me some idea on these?

Thank you,

DFO

To create your inline layer:

First, create a layer: https://sc1.checkpoint.com/documents/latest/APIs/#cli/add-access-layer~v1.9.1%20
- The layer will have a name and uid.
In the relevant rule, you set the action to "Apply Layer" and specify the newly created layer (parameter is inline-layer): https://sc1.checkpoint.com/documents/latest/APIs/#cli/set-access-rule~v1.9.1%20

This makes a layer "inline."
To add/modify rules in the inline layer, you specify the uid of the "inline" layer you created (not the parent layer).
