Malwation AIMA Response Integration via API

Purpose

This guide explains how to configure the Malwation AIMA Response integration in Logsign USO, so that an analyst (or an action rule) can submit a file for sandbox analysis, and check the status or retrieve the result of a submission, directly from a Logsign Incident. This is a query/submission integration, not a containment integration.

Prerequisites

  • A Malwation AIMA account with API access and an API key.

Step 1: Obtain Your Malwation AIMA API Key

  1. Log in to your Malwation AIMA account.
  2. Open your account/API settings and copy your API key.

Step 2: Configure the Integration in Logsign USO

In Logsign USO, go to Settings > Integrations > Responses, search for Malwation AIMA, click Configure then +Device, and fill in:

FieldRequiredDescription
Device NameYesFree-text label identifying this Malwation AIMA device in Logsign.
HostYesBase URL of the Malwation AIMA API. Always include the https:// scheme explicitly; if you omit it, the integration silently connects over plain, unencrypted HTTP instead of failing or defaulting to HTTPS.
Api KeyYesYour Malwation AIMA API key from Step 1. Stored encrypted at rest.

Click Create to save the device.

Available Methods

  • add-submission (Containment) — submits a file for sandbox analysis. Args required: environment (Windows 7 or Windows 10, x64), work_path (desktop, root, appdata, windows, or temp), timeout, and file (the integration does not validate this at the schema level, but it fails without a usable file); optional: is_public, mouse_simulation, enable_net.
  • check-submission-status (Analysis) — checks the processing status of a submission. Arg: uuid (required, returned by add-submission).
  • get-submission (Analysis) — fetches the full submission result (hashes, verdict level, file info) once ready. Arg: uuid (required).

Troubleshooting

SymptomLikely causeWhat to check
401/403 errorWrong or revoked Api Key.Re-enter the Api Key exactly as issued in your Malwation AIMA account.
get-submission returns "not ready"The sandbox analysis has not finished yet.Use check-submission-status first, and retry get-submission once the status indicates completion.

Notes and Limits

  • This integration only submits/reads sandbox analyses; it does not block or quarantine anything based on the results.
  • Always enter the Host field with an explicit https:// prefix. If left without a scheme, the integration falls back to plain HTTP, sending your API key and submitted files unencrypted.
