[Security Solution][Platform] - Add connectors to import/export API

[WafaaNasr]

Summary

• Addresses [Security Solution][Platform] - Add connectors to import/export API #118774
• Enable Security Rule to be imported even if one of its connectors has a missing secret
• Shows Warning Callout in the Import Modal when missing secrets connector is imported.
• Added Link connectors to the connectors page in the same tab, so that the user can fix imported connectors.
• Added Overwrite existing connectors with conflicting action "id" option to the Import Modal

Cases:

Export:
- Export Rule(s) with connectors through Export All or Bulk Actions

Import:
- Import Rule with correct connectors data
- Import Rule with missing secrets' connectors by showing a warning callout
- Re-Import connectors even if they were stored when overwrite is true

Error:
- Showing an error message when the user has a Read Actions permission and stops the importing => You may not have actions privileges required to import rules with actions ...
- Showing an error message when the user has an old imported rule missing all the connectors data OR these connectors were not in the user's env => X connector is missing. Connector id missing is: X
- Showing an error if the new connectors defined in the exported file are not corresponding to the actions array under the rules param => X connector is missing. Connector id missing is: X
- Showing a conflict error in case of existing connectors and re-importing again with an overwrite false => this won't happen in case of implementing the Skipping action-connectors importing if all connectors have been imported/created before

Skip importing:
- Skipping action-connectors importing if the actions array is empty, even if the user has exported-connectors in the file
- Skipping action-connectors importing if all connectors have been imported/created before

Are you planning to add them for this PR, or a follow up? 👍 if you'd like to follow-up with an additional test-coverage PR -- would be nice to add a few more FTR tests covering connectors as well.

[WafaaNasr]

I did already in this file x-pack/test/detection_engine_api_integration/security_and_spaces/group10/import_rules.ts which I found exactly the same as this file x-pack/plugins/security_solution/server/lib/detection_engine/rule_management/api/rules/import_rules/route.test.ts and the interesting thing is this file is not referenced at all, that's why I didn't add tests there and I wanted to ask if we need this file actually?

[spong]

So this file contains the jest unit tests against the route, whereas .../detection_engine_api_integration/security_and_spaces/group10/import_rules.ts are the FTR (functional test runner) API integration tests that actually stand up a kibana/es instance to test the import e2e.

This file would be good for testing the basic route inputs and such (or any other conditional logic specific to the route itself), but the latter is best for testing the complete flow from request to response, so good to have both. For these unit tests, the only connector specific test you might want to add is around the new overwrite_action_connectors query param that was added to the importQuerySchema, but as you mention, this could be covered by the FTR tests as well.

Checked out, tested locally, and did a high-level code review and LGTM! 👍 🚀 🙂

• I did add a few comments/questions for some future cleanup and additional tests, but no changes required in this PR.
• As a note, I did find two tangential issues (#149994, #149995) in testing, but they were pre-existing.
• Also, as mentioned in an above comment, rule import is currently broken (as of #147035) since we're exporting additional fields that break validation on import, so I went ahead and patched that locally by returning execution_summary: undefined over in internalRuleToAPIResponse() so I could perform full e2e testing.
• I went ahead and added the needs_docs label as a reminder that we'll need to update our API docs with this change

Overall looks great @WafaaNasr -- thank you for all your efforts here and getting our users closer to a one-click backup/recover workflow! 🙌 🙂

• I did add a few comments/questions for some future cleanup and additional tests, but no changes required in this PR.
• As a note, I did find two tangential issues ([Security Solution] Rule import error toast is too large to view title when many errors happen on import #149994, [Security Solution] Unable to view multiple errors toasts when rule import fails #149995) in testing, but they were pre-existing.
• Also, as mentioned in an above comment, rule import is currently broken (as of [Security Solution] Write and read Rule Execution Logs from rule instead of saved object #147035) since we're exporting additional fields that break validation on import, so I went ahead and patched that locally by returning execution_summary: undefined over in internalRuleToAPIResponse() so I could perform full e2e testing.

Thank you so much @spong for your very thorough review!! really appreciated 🙏🏻😊
I will address all the comments thanks!

@ARWNightingale do you have any objections to changing the last part of this warning message from review in connectors to Go to connectors.?

This change would align the message with the one that displays when users perform a similar act on the Saved Objects page, which is importing a connector that needs configuration details re-applied or fixed. I think the consistent messaging can encourage the same behavior (i.e., go to the Connectors page to fix your connectors) and create a seamless experience for users whether they're receiving the warning from the Import rules modal or the Saved Objects page.

[WafaaNasr]

Thanks for pulling the copy together for review, @WafaaNasr! I've left some suggestions and questions below for your consideration. Hopefully they're helpful!

1. Warning message

• Title: Would it be possible to change the title so it's more descriptive of the action that we want users to take. Instead of x connector imported can it be x connectors need your attention or x connectors are missing information?

• Message: The phrase "sensitive information" is accurate but sounds a little scary. What do you think about changing it to describe what needs to be re-entered or re-applied? How about something like x connectors must be re-authenticated or are missing configuration details. Fix them here. (here would be linked to the Connectors page) => Will leave the message as it is to be consistent with the Saved Object page under Stack Management

  2. New Overwrite checkbox I recommend removing action before connectors since we generally refer to connectors without it. Here's what I'm suggesting: Overwrite existing connectors with conflicting action "id" => DONE please validate in the new cloud build

3. Success Toast message LGTM!

4. Error messages

• Missing import action privileges: Will users see this error message in any other situations or does it only appear if they for sure don't have the necessary feature privileges? If this only appears because they're missing feature privs, I recommend changing the message to something like You need additional privileges to import rules with actions. Refer to [the documentation](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/security/master/detections-permissions-section.html#enable-detections-ui) for more information.

  => DONE please validate in the new cloud build, as agreed the new message is You need additional privileges to import rules with actions. only

  • Missing connectors: Can you provide a little background on the purpose of this error message and what it describes? Why would a connector be missing? What should users do when they encounter this error? => ** Covered on our meeting :) **

@nastasha-solomon thanks for the comments, please find the updated state per each item :)

@nastasha-solomon I confirmed with @ARWNightingale that we are going to implement the same UI as in the Saved Object page, I will add the Go to connectors button instead of review in connectors`

Great work!

Why do we have here action_connectors_success but also action_connectors_errors

[WafaaNasr]

That's a good question, actually, this test is not needed as per this discussion initially I added the default values of the exported connectors, just to mimic the exported file if no actions' connectors were exported.
