The Tenable Attack Path API enables users to retrieve details about attack path findings and attack path vectors. A Finding is an attack technique that exists in one or more attack paths that lead to one or more critical assets. The Findings tab in Attack Path Analysis takes your data and pairs it with advanced graph analytics and the MITRE ATT&CK® Framework to create Findings, which enables you to understand and act on the unknowns that enable and amplify threat impact on your assets and information. For more information about findings, see [Attack Path](https://docs.tenable.com/exposure-management/Content/exposure-management/attack-path/attack-path.htm) in the _Tenable Exposure Management User Guide._

The contract defines 20 schemas that model the data the API accepts and returns. The most detailed are Attack_Path_AttackTechniqueSearchResult (16 properties), Attack_Path_AbstractNodeGraphNode (14 properties), Attack_Path_VectorRow (11 properties), Attack_Path_ProcedureGraphNode (9 properties). Each schema is shown below with its type and property counts.
Attack_Path_Attack-Path-Multiple-Filters
object
A filter operator that combines multiple filter conditions for attack paths. The value array can contain both filter conditions and nested filter operators to…
