[backend/frontend] Be able to hide Observables, Artifacts and Sightings (#3642)

[yassine-ouaamou]

Proposed changes

• Possibility to hide Observables, Artifacts and Sightings
• Possibility to hide the sections Observations and Events (and Analyses)
• Artifact and Observable appear now in the Settings > Customization page and the only setting we can configure for them is "Hidden Entity" (no workflow, no custom attributes)

Related issues

• Be able to fully hide "Observations" (missing: Observables / Artifacts) and "Events" (missing: Sightings) #3642

Bugs found:

• when trying to update hidden entities for default role, app crashes: (

  • edit default role
  • add hidden entities
  • edit again to remove hidden entities ==> app crashes (locally not on demo)

• Different behaviour with/without Bypass
  -with ByPass user : When hidden entities Analyses (reports/Groupings/Malware Analyses/) are selected, the Analyses section is still visible in the leftbar but empty .
  -with standard user: Analyses section is not visible in the leftbar
  (maybe it is normal, i just find it weird)

Bugs founds:

• Same as Romuald, for the sightings in hidden entities list and the behavior when removing incident (the top bar hilight the observed data instead of sightings)

I tested the bugs of Marie, didn't succed to reproduce them. It works fine on my screen.

I don't really understand how workflow_configuration is set. It is not saved in the database, how do we use it exactly ?

[yassine-ouaamou]

I believe it is saved in the database as we initialize the entity settings on the startup of the platform (initialization.js:platformInit.js -> initCreateEntitySettings())

[SouadHadjiat]

I still can't see it in my database. Do you ? @yassine-ouaamou

From what I can see, initCreateEntitySettings creates entity settings only if they are not already in the database (which won't work for existing platforms, or only if the entity type is new).
And it creates the entitySetting based on defaultEntitySetting, which doesn't have workflow_configuration.

[yassine-ouaamou]

You are right! It is not on the database.

I guess "Workflow Status" icon should be displayed in grey for Artifact and Observables since it's not available

Fixed!

I am not able to reproduce any of these two behaviours
