Overview

This node operation retrieves detailed information about a specific incident from Microsoft Sentinel. It is useful for security analysts and IT professionals who need to fetch incident data, including optional related alerts, comments, and entities, to investigate and respond to security events. For example, a user can get an incident by its UUID and choose to include related alerts and comments for a comprehensive view.

Use Case Examples

  1. Fetch an incident by its ID to review its details.
  2. Retrieve an incident along with its related alerts and comments for thorough analysis.

Output

JSON

  • incident - The main incident data retrieved from Microsoft Sentinel.
  • alerts - Related alerts included if the option is enabled.
  • comments - Comments related to the incident if requested.

Dependencies

Troubleshooting

  • Ensure the Incident ID is a valid UUID format; otherwise, the request will fail.
