Usage

Define configuration file

Copy the config_tpl.py and name it config.py.

The configuration file specifies a triplet of api key/secret and server:

  • api_key (should be compatible with API v2 - should contains at least 60 chars)
  • server - full url of the WebService instance e.g. https://www.hybrid-analysis.com

Please fill them with the appropriate data. You can generate a public (restricted) API key by following these instructions: https://www.hybrid-analysis.com/knowledge-base/issuing-self-signed-api-key

If you have the full version of Falcon Sandbox, create any kind of API key in the admin area: https://www.hybrid-analysis.com/apikeys
