umbr_api is Cisco Umbrella Enforcement API wrapper and command-line utility. With help of umbr_api you can add new sites and URL to the customer’s blocked site list, remove or show current entries from cli in seconds.

Cisco Umbrella uses the internet’s infrastructure to block malicious destinations before a connection is ever established. By delivering security from the cloud, not only do you save money, but we also provide more effective security.

Created mostly for educational purposes.

Installation

To install from a local folder execute at the ‘umbr_api’ root directory:

pip3 install -e .

To install from production https://pypi.org execute:

pip3 install umbr_api

To install from GitHub:

pip3 install git+https://github.com/kolatz/umbr_api.git

To install from local archive:

pip3 install filename.tar.gz

Please note, that you still need registered and active API key from Cisco to enable functionality.

Use of command-line utility

main() in umbrella.py registered as umbrella executable. So, you can run it directly.

Examples:

umbrella add www.example.com http://www.example.com/images
umbrella add example.com example.com --force
umbrella del www.example.com
umbrella del 555XXXXX --key YOUR-CUSTOMER-KEY-IS-HERE-0123456789
umbrella get 100
umbrella get --key YOUR-CUSTOMER-KEY-IS-HERE-0123456789

Use API wrapper

You need to import particular functions or modules from umbr_api. For example:

from umbr_api import get
get.get_list(key='YOUR-CUSTOMER-KEY-IS-HERE-0123456789')

from umbr_api.add import add
add(domain='example.com', url='example.com', key='YOUR-CUSTOMER-KEY-IS-HERE-0123456789')
There three main functions:
  • umbr_api.get.get_list

  • umbr_api.add.add

  • umbr_api.remove.remove

The API key should be specified via CLI, if not functions try to read it from customer_key.json within package data\ folder.

How to obtain API key

How to use API key

  1. Provide as an argument for command-line utility

umbrella del www.example.com --key YOUR-CUSTOMER-KEY-IS-HERE-0123456789
  1. Provide it as part of a program call

from umbr_api.get import get_list
response = get_list(key='YOUR-CUSTOMER-KEY-IS-HERE-0123456789')

3. Create data/customer_key.json file within umbr_api package directory. This is an unsecured and unsupported way because of keeping key in clear text format. To find package directory:

import os
import umbr_api
print(os.path.abspath(umbr_api.__file__))

4. API key can be read from a keyring for command-line execution. To save API key you can use:

umbrella keyring --add YOUR-CUSTOMER-KEY-IS-HERE-0123456789
umbrella keyring --show

Limitations

  1. Lack of documentation

  2. You heed to have an Umbrella subscription or active evaluation

  3. Storing API key within json file is not secure, better to provide it to the script directly

  4. Asserts will be removed with compiling to optimized byte code. This caused various protections to be removed.
