  • 1.  QRadar Ariel Data Export

    Posted 11/30/25 10:17 PM

    To date, there has been no publicly-available tool, IBM or otherwise derived, to effectively extract / convert data from IBM's proprietary QRadar database (Ariel) into any other format with data suitable for use outside of the QRadar platform.

    I'm pleased to announce that such a tool has been make available and is published at GitHub - PaloAltoNetworks/Qradar-Ariel-Data-Export: Extract & Convert QRadar Ariel Event Data to JSON Formatted Files

    I hope that folks find it useful. There will be updates to the tool over time.

    Dear Paul,
    Thank you for developing and publishing this tool. I would like to know if there are any plans to include functionality that allows converting JSON-formatted data back into the IBM proprietary format in the future.
    Additionally, will it be possible to perform this conversion for selective log sources in the future?
    Thank you for your time and support.
    Best,

    Amit

    No on both counts.   I do wish I could export by log source, or log source type, but is not possible.   The best one can do is to throw away any undesirable log source type before writing to disk.

    Paul
