A Hunting Notification object represents a notification generated when one of the YARA rules in a Hunting Ruleset matches a file sent to VirusTotal. This object is only visible for the Hunting Ruleset's owner and any user the ruleset was shared with.

The object contains the following attributes:

date: <integer> notification date as UTC timestamp.
match_in_subfile: <boolean> whether the match was in a subfile or not.
rule_name: <string> matched rule name.
rule_tags: <list of strings> matched rule tags.
snippet: <string> matched contents inside the file as hexdump. Contains begin_highlight and end_highlight substrings to indicate the part of the file that produced the match and give additional context about surrounding bytes in the match.
source_country: <string> country where the matched file was uploaded from.
source_key: <string> unique identifier for the source in ciphered form.
tags: <list of strings> notification tags.
