Web File Repository
This Integration is part of the Web File Repository Pack.#
Supported versions
Supported Cortex XSOAR versions: 6.0.0 and later.
Simple web server with a file uploading console to store small files.
Helps make your environment ready for testing purpose for your playbooks or automations to download files from a web server. NOTE: For more information about long-running integrations, see the Cortex XSOAR 8 Cloud, Cortex XSOAR 8 On-prem or Cortex XSIAM documentation.
Configure Web File Repository in Cortex#
| Parameter | Description | Required | 
|---|---|---|
| Incident type | False | |
| Long running instance | False | |
| Port mapping (<port> or <host port>:<docker port>) | Runs the service on this port from within Cortex XSOAR. Requires a unique port for each long-running integration instance. Do not use the same port for multiple instances. Note: If you click the test button more than once, a failure may occur mistakenly indicating that the port is already in use. (For Cortex XSOAR 8 and Cortex XSIAM) If you do not enter a port, an unused port for Web File Repository will automatically be generated when the instance is saved. However, if using an engine, you must enter a port. | True |

How to Access the File Management UI#
Access the File Management UI by URL and Port (HTTP)#
In a web browser, go to http://<cortex-xsoar-server-address>:<listen_port>.
Access the File Management UI by Instance Name (HTTPS)#
To access the File Management UI by instance name, make sure Instance execute external is enabled.
In Cortex XSOAR 6.x:
- Navigate to Settings > About > Troubleshooting.
 - In the Server Configuration section, verify that the 
instance.execute.external.<instance_name>key is set totrue. If this key does not exist, click + Add Server Configuration and add theinstance.execute.external.<instance_name>and set the value totrue. See this documentation for further information. 
In a web browser:
For Cortex XSOAR 6.x: Go to
https://<cortex-xsoar-address>/instance/execute/<instance_name>.For Cortex XSOAR 8 On-prem, Cortex XSOAR 8 Cloud, or Cortex XSIAM: Go to
https://ext-<tenant>.crtx.<region>.paloaltonetworks.com/xsoar/instance/execute/<instance-name>.For Multi Tenant environments: Go to
https://<cortex-xsoar-address>/acc_<account name>/instance/execute/<instance_name>.Note:
For Cortex XSOAR 8 On-prem, you need to add theext-FQDN DNS record to map the Cortex XSOAR DNS name to the external IP address. For example,ext-xsoar.mycompany.com.
