Imports security findings generated by a finding provider into Security Hub. This action is requested by the finding provider to import its findings into Security Hub.

BatchImportFindings must be called by one of the following:

  • The Amazon Web Services account that is associated with a finding if you are using the default product ARN or are a partner sending findings from within a customer's Amazon Web Services account. In these cases, the identifier of the account that you are calling BatchImportFindings from needs to be the same as the AwsAccountId attribute for the finding.

  • An Amazon Web Services account that Security Hub has allow-listed for an official partner integration. In this case, you can call BatchImportFindings from the allow-listed account and send findings from different customer accounts in the same batch.

The maximum allowed size for a finding is 240 Kb. An error is returned for any finding larger than 240 Kb.

After a finding is created, BatchImportFindings cannot be used to update the following finding fields and objects, which Security Hub customers use to manage their investigation workflow.

  • Note

  • UserDefinedFields

  • VerificationState

  • Workflow

Finding providers also should not use BatchImportFindings to update the following attributes.

  • Confidence

  • Criticality

  • RelatedFindings

  • Severity

Instead, finding providers use FindingProviderFields to provide values for these attributes.
