Tanium API Gateway 1.8.77

Release Date: August 1, 2023

New Features

  • The endpoints query filter now supports eidFirstSeen and eidLastSeen.
  • This release introduces the stability index for fields, to convey the level of support for a field.
    • 0 - Deprecated: Deprecated fields stop receiving support.
      • Unless otherwise stated in Field Stability Index Changes below, fields deprecated in prior releases are changed to stability 0 - Deprecated.
    • 1.0 - Experimental (Early Development): Experimental fields in early development are not stable, and might change significantly.
    • 1.1 - Experimental (Active Development): Experimental fields in active development are not stable, and the implemented functionality is closer to meeting requirements than experimental fields in early development.
    • 1.2 - Experimental (Release Candidate): Experimental fields as release candidate are not stable, and the functionality is ready for evaluation.
    • 2 - Legacy: Legacy fields are not actively developed.
    • 3 - Stable: Stable fields have active support.
      • Existing fields in active support are changed to stability 3 - Stable in this release.

Improvements

  • Added new limits on memory and concurrent responses to improve performance and resource allocation.

New Fields

The following new fields add new request functionality:

  • Sensors requests
    • query.sensors (includeHidden) - include hidden sensors in the response
    • query.sensors.edges.node.hidden - whether a sensor is hidden by default

Field Stability Index Changes

The following fields have an updated stability index:

  • The following fields are changed to stability index 1.2 - Experimental (Release Candidate):
    • query.directConnectEndpoint.performance._dev_query
  • The following fields are changed to stability index 2 - Legacy:
    • mutation.closeDirectConnection is legacy. Use mutation.directConnectClose instead.
    • mutation.killProcess is legacy. Use mutation.directConnectProcessTerminate instead.
    • mutation.openDirectConnection is legacy. Use mutation.directConnectOpen instead.
    • mutation.pingDirectConnection is legacy. Use mutation.directConnectPing instead.
    • query.directEndpoint is legacy. Use query.directConnectEndpoint instead.
  • The following fields are changed to stability 3 - Deprecated.
    • query.endpointLastSeen is deprecated. Use query.endpoints (filter: {path: id}) to filter on endpoint ID, then include query.endpoints.edges.node.eidLastSeen in the request.

Fields are changed to stability index 0 - Deprecated in favor of replacement fields, which offer improved functionality or ease-of-use. After 12 months from the initial announcement, deprecated fields receive support and maintenance for a minimum of 6 months. For the best results, migrate any deprecated fields in your requests to the suggested replacement fields. For more information on stability index changes, see https://docs.tanium.com/api_gateway/api_gateway/deprecated.html#jul_2023.
