### Overview

Subscribe to sample log generation for multiple Cloud SIEM content packs in a single call.
Each requested content pack is processed independently; the response includes a per-item
status so partial successes can be inspected.

**Availability**: this endpoint is restricted to Cloud SIEM trial organizations on an
eligible pricing model. Non-trial orgs receive `403 Forbidden`, the feature flag may also reject
requests with `400 Bad Request`, and legacy pricing tiers receive per-item responses with `status: not_available`.

This endpoint requires any of the following permissions:

- `security_monitoring_filters_write`
- `logs_modify_indexes`

OAuth apps require the `security_monitoring_filters_write`, `logs_modify_indexes` authorization [scope](https://dnd37xeb23o8n.cloudfront.net/jen.gilbert/astro-base/fr/api/latest/scopes.md#security-monitoring) to access this endpoint.

### Request

#### Body Data (required)

The content packs to subscribe to and the desired duration of the subscriptions.
