Container UPDATE - field open_time

CMPC

Hello Everyone,

I'm trying to create a playbook that based on the message provided by the prompt action, will update the container:open_time field.

I already tried the following:

1. Use the container_update custom function where i've set in the input_json box {"custom_fields": {"open_time": prompt_1:action_result.summary.responses.0}}

2. Created a new variable called

prompt_value = container.get("prompt_1:action_result.summary.responses.1", None)

input_json = {}

input_json = {"container:open_time": prompt_value}

parameters.append({

"inpu_json": json.dumps(input_json)})

But i'm receiving the following message 

"Valid container entered but no valid container changes provided."

 

Perhaps someone has a different method to help me resolve this.

Is there a reason you're trying to manually change open_time? If you change from new to in progress, SOAR will set that field on its own. This also applies if you bump it back to new then change to in progress again.
