PatchBrief API

Put PatchBrief where work already happens.

Use the live JSON feed to move source-backed vulnerability briefs into dashboards, SIEM enrichment, Slack alerts, ticket queues, and patch reports.

Quickstart

The launch API is a static JSON endpoint. It works with curl, scheduled jobs, serverless functions, and no SDK.

GET https://www.patchbrief.org/feed.json
curl -s https://www.patchbrief.org/feed.json

Fields built for routing

Each response includes feed metadata, source health, and normalized brief records that are easy to filter downstream.

Field Use
pipeline.sourcesMonitor source health for CISA KEV, MSRC, NVD, GitHub, CERT/CC, Exploit-DB, and EPSS.
items[].typeFilter by KEV, Patch Tuesday, vendor advisory, coordinated disclosure, or exploit activity.
items[].signalRoute known exploited, critical advisory, patch review, or threat activity items differently.
items[].vendorMatch briefs to vendor watchlists or asset owners.
items[].operator_checkPopulate tickets with the next practical verification step.
items[].sourcesKeep every downstream record linked to the public source claim.

Make it a supported integration

The endpoint is open during launch. Team is the paid API tier for teams that need PatchBrief to become a dependable workflow.

Integration support

Help mapping fields into Slack, SIEM, ticketing, dashboards, and patch reports.

CSV and archive help

Simple exports and historical feed support for reporting, pilots, and team rollout.

Priority API support

Direct support when the feed powers an operational workflow or evaluation.

Future private API keys can be added behind Cloudflare Access or a lightweight API gateway when paid usage justifies it.
