Microsoft Defender XDR is built on top of an integration-ready platform.
Use the Microsoft Defender XDR APIs to automate workflows based on the shared incident and advanced hunting tables.
Combined incidents queue - Focus on what's critical by grouping the full attack scope and all impacted assets together under the incident API.
Cross-product threat hunting - Leverage your security team's organizational knowledge to hunt for signs of compromise, by creating your own custom queries to sift over raw data collected across multiple protection products.
Event streaming API - Ship real-time events and alerts in a single data stream as they occur.
Along with these Microsoft Defender XDR-specific APIs, each of our other security products expose additional APIs to help you take advantage of their unique capabilities.
Note
The transition to the unified portal should not affect the PowerBi dashboards based on Microsoft Defender for Endpoint APIs. You can continue to work with the existing APIs regardless of the interactive portal transition.
