Tool:list_parsers
List all parsers for a given log type, returning only metadata.
Retrieves a list of parser metadata for a specific log type, or for all log types if "-" is specified. This tool is useful for getting an overview of existing parsers and their states without fetching the full parser code.
Agent Responsibilities: - The response is a JSON object. The agent should access theparsers key to get a list of parser objects. - Each object in the list contains parser metadata such asname,log_type,state,create_time, etc. - Thename field contains the full resource name, from which the parser ID can be extracted. - If the response contains anext_page_token, it indicates that more results are available. The agent should use this token in a subsequent call to retrieve the next page. - The agent should not present the raw JSON. Instead, it should format the output as a human-readable list, for example, using a table or a bulleted list.
Workflow Integration: - Use to discover existing parsers for a specific log type. - Helpful for finding a parser ID to use with other tools likeget_parser oractivate_parser. - Use to audit which parsers exist for a customer and their current states (ACTIVE, INACTIVE, etc.).
Args: project_id (str): Google Cloud project ID (required). customer_id (str): Chronicle customer ID (required). region (str): Chronicle region (e.g., "us", "europe") (required). log_type (str): Chronicle log type identifier for the parser. Use "-" to list parsers for all log types. Defaults to "-". page_size (int): The maximum number of parsers to return. The service may return fewer than this value. page_token (str): A page token, received from a previouslist_parsers call. Provide this to retrieve the subsequent page. filter (str): A filter to be applied to the list of parsers.
Returns: str: Raw JSON response from the API, representing a list of Parser metadata objects. The agent should parse this and present a formatted list to the user. Returns an error message if listing fails.
Example Usage: # List all parsers for a specific log type list_parsers( project_id="my-project", customer_id="my-customer", region="us", log_type="OKTA" )
# List all parsers for all log types list_parsers( project_id="my-project", customer_id="my-customer", region="us" ) The following sample demonstrate how to usecurl to invoke thelist_parsers MCP tool.

{"projectId":string,"customerId":string,"region":string,"logType":string,"parserId":string,"state":enum ( |
| Fields | |
|---|---|
projectId |
Project ID of the customer. |
customerId |
Customer ID of the customer. |
region |
Region of the customer. |
logType |
Log type of the parser to activate. |
parserId |
ID of the parser to activate. |
state |
State of the parser. |
createTime |
Time at which the parser was created. Uses RFC 3339, where generated output will always be Z-normalized and use 0, 3, 6 or 9 fractional digits. Offsets other than "Z" are also accepted. Examples: |
code |
Code of the parser. |
Timestamp
| JSON representation |
|---|
{"seconds":string,"nanos":integer} |
| Fields | |
|---|---|
seconds |
Represents seconds of UTC time since Unix epoch 1970-01-01T00:00:00Z. Must be between -62135596800 and 253402300799 inclusive (which corresponds to 0001-01-01T00:00:00Z to 9999-12-31T23:59:59Z). |
nanos |
Non-negative fractions of a second at nanosecond resolution. This field is the nanosecond portion of the duration, not an alternative to seconds. Negative second values with fractions must still have non-negative nanos values that count forward in time. Must be between 0 and 999,999,999 inclusive. |
