…ields to `rule_source` object schema (elastic#234793) **Resolves: elastic/security-team#12507 (internal) ## Summary Adds two new fields to the existing `rule_source` object in our rule schema as described in elastic#230856. Also updates and adds test coverage for the new field logic. The new fields are: - `customized_fields`: an array of objects containing rule field names that have been modified from the base version of the prebuilt rule. - Defaults to empty array if prebuilt rule is not customized or if base version did not exist during diff calculation. - `has_base_version`: a boolean field that specifies if the base version of a prebuilt rule was able to be fetched and used during the customization calculation. This PR also adds related telemetry fields as described in elastic#230856. This includes a `customizations` object field which contains a slimmed down version of `customized_fields` and has a `num_functional_fields` number field that is created in the telemetry task pipeline by comparing the customized fields array to a constant list of field names that we are defining as "functional". This source of truth list can be found in the `x-pack/solutions/security/plugins/security_solution/common/detection_engine/constants.ts` file ### Examples ```json { "rule_source": { "type": "external", "is_customized": true, /* New fields */ "customized_fields": [ { "field_name": "tags", }, { "field_name": "query", } ], "has_base_version": true } } ``` ```json "customizations": { "customized_fields": ["tags", "query"], "num_functional_fields": 2, } ``` ## How to test telemetry Link to internal staging with example data: ([internal staging](https://analytics-staging.sde.elastic.dev/app/discover#/?_g=(filters:!(),refreshInterval:(pause:!t,value:60000),time:(from:'2025-09-26T15:59:24.512Z',to:'2025-09-26T16:08:58.435Z'))&_a=(columns:!(),dataSource:(dataViewId:'4ca97040-d095-11ec-95a5-011050c1180f',type:dataView),filters:!(),interval:auto,query:(language:kuery,query:'customizations.num_functional_fields%20%3E%200'),sort:!(!('@timestamp',desc)),viewMode:documents))) 1. Set the prebuilt rule task type to something shorter than `1hr` in this file: `x-pack/solutions/security/plugins/security_solution/server/lib/telemetry/tasks/prebuilt_rule_alerts.ts` 2. Add the following to `kibana.dev.yml`: ``` telemetry.enabled: true telemetry.optIn: true // (Optional for checking to see if its working) logging: root: appenders: [default] level: warn loggers: - name: plugins.securitySolution level: debug - name: plugins.ruleRegistry - name: plugins.taskManager ``` 3. Start up both Elasticsearch and kibana (Has to be done _after_ updating task interval as task objects are stored in ES) 4. Install prebuilt rules 5. Modify prebuilt rules with different field customizations and enable those rules 6. Generate alerts that match these rules (resolver script generator, dev tools, query modification, etc.) 7. View the alerts getting sent to the internal staging telemetry cluster (https://analytics-staging.sde.elastic.dev) in the `detections_alert_telemetry_elastic*` index 8. Use the new `customizations` field to filter out/in customized rule alerts ## Checklist Check the PR satisfies following conditions.
