Update Runtime Container Policy

PUT 
/api/v31.02/policies/runtime/container
x-prisma-cloud-target-env: {"permission":"policyRuntimeContainer","saas":true,"self-hosted":true}
x-public: true

Updates the runtime policy for containers. All rules in the policy are updated in a single shot.

Prisma Cloud automatically builds allow-list security models for each container image in your environment. Use runtime container rules to augment the rules in those models. Manually defined rules augment learned models as follows:

Policy (allowed) = Manual rules (explicitly allowed) + Model (all learned behavior) - Manual rules (explicitly denied)

This endpoint maps to the Add rule button in Defend > Runtime > Container policy in the Console UI.

cURL Request​

Refer to the following example cURL command that overwrites all rules in your current policy with a new policy that has a single rule:

$ curl 'https://<CONSOLE>/api/v<VERSION>/policies/runtime/container' \
  -k \
  -X PUT \
  -u <USER> \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -d \
'{
   "rules":[
      {
         "name":"my-rule",
         "collections":[
            {
               "name":"All"       
            }
         ],
         "processes":{
            "effect":"alert"
