Hi All, 

I am new to Velociraptor and already loving it.

I was going through all the documents for VR but could not find two things

1) How to schedule a hunt to run it n number of times in a day periodically using UI?
2) Do we have postman collection for API's which can be used to automate using some other scripting language like python etc.

Regards,
ANkit

Hi Ankit,
   You can schedule a hunt using custom VQL - Simply customize the Server.Monitoring.ScheduleHunt artifact to launch what you need when you need it. 

Note that this will create a new hunt each time - a hunt is simply a logical collection of the same artifact across multiple clients. Usually when people want to run multiple hunts per day they want to detect a change in something - this is better done using client side monitoring artifacts than using hunts because you get only the events about modification from the clients.

I am not sure what you mean by postman collection - but you can use python via the API using pyvelociraptor (see https://velociraptor.velocidex.com/velociraptor-post-processing-with-jupyter-notebook-and-pandas-8a344d05ee8c for example).

Thanks
Mike

Thank you Mike, Appreciate it. I will check Server.Monitoring.ScheduleHunt articat.

Btw by postman collection, I meant REST API collection. But no worries now. I have got my answer. :)

Best,
ANkit
