Case Management

Managing CrowdStrike cases, including searching, creating, updating, and managing evidence and tags

  • Case Templates:read
  • Cases:read
  • Cases:write

Required scopes: Cases:write

Attach alert evidence to an existing case.

Provide alert composite_id values from the Alerts v2 API (e.g. from falcon_search_detections). Each case supports a maximum of 100 combined evidence items. Returns the updated case record.

Example prompts:

  • “Attach these detection alerts to the case”

Required scopes: Cases:write

Attach LogScale event evidence to an existing case.

Provide event IDs obtained from falcon_search_ngsiem or the Falcon console. Each case supports a maximum of 100 combined evidence items. Returns the updated case record.

Example prompts:

  • “Add these NGSIEM event IDs to the case as evidence”

Required scopes: Cases:write

Create a new case in CrowdStrike.

Provide a name and severity at minimum. Optionally attach alert or event evidence, assign a user, apply a template, and set tags. Returns the created case record.

Example prompts:

  • “Create a critical case called ‘Suspicious lateral movement from WORKSTATION-42’”
  • “Open a high-severity case for the credential theft alerts and attach them as evidence”

Required scopes: Cases:read

Retrieve details for case IDs you already have.

Use when you have specific case IDs from search results or external references. For discovering cases by criteria, use falcon_search_cases instead. Returns full case records.

Example prompts:

  • “Pull up the full details on that case”

Required scopes: Case Templates:read

List available case templates.

Use to discover templates that can be applied when creating or updating cases. Returns template details including name, custom fields, and SLA configuration.

Example prompts:

  • “What case templates are available?”

Required scopes: Cases:write

Add or remove tags on a case.

Set action to ‘add’ to attach new tags, or ‘remove’ to delete existing tags. Returns the updated case record.

Example prompts:

  • “Tag that case with ‘ransomware’ and ‘escalated’”
  • “Remove the ‘escalated’ tag from that case”

Required scopes: Cases:read

Find cases by criteria and return their complete details.

Use this to discover cases by status, severity, assignee, time range, or evidence attributes. Consult falcon://cases/search/fql-guide before constructing filter expressions. Returns full case records including status, severity, evidence, assigned user, and analysis results.

Example prompts:

  • “Show me any open cases with high severity or above”
  • “What cases have been created in the last 24 hours?”

Required scopes: Cases:write

Update an existing case’s fields.

Provide the case ID and any fields to change. Use expected_version for optimistic concurrency control to prevent conflicting updates. Returns the updated case record with incremented version.

Example prompts:

  • “Set that case to in_progress and assign it to the analyst”
  • “Close the case — investigation is complete”
  • falcon://cases/search/fql-guide: Contains the guide for the filter param of the falcon_search_cases tool.
