# Sentinel Data Lake

Connect Sola and Sentinel Data Lake to get security insights

## Overview <a href="#overview" id="overview"></a>

The Sentinel Data Lake integration allows you to connect Microsoft Sentinel, Defender, and Entra as a real time security data stream and get continuous, context-aware insights for detection, investigation, and response.

With the Sentinel Data Lake integration, you can:

* Connect Microsoft Sentinel security events as a real-time data stream for continuous analysis and correlation.
* Correlate Sentinel security events with data across your cloud, identity, and SaaS environment.
* Investigate security events in real time with Sola's AI-powered reasoning.
* Support detection, investigation, and response with live security data from your Microsoft environment.

{% hint style="warning" %}
**Your data can only be retrieved, never modified.**

Once connected, your data is securely stored, and access is restricted to retrieving configurations and metadata only. Authentication methods ensure secure delegation of permissions while maintaining data integrity.
{% endhint %}

### Connect Sentinel Data Lake to Sola

To connect connect Sentinel Data Lake, you'll need an Azure user with:

* **Owner** or **User Access Administrator** role on the subscription, and
* **Application Administrator** or **Global Administrator** role in Azure AD.

You'll also need [**Azure Cloud Shell**](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/cloud-shell/get-started) configured on your account.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.sola.security/integrations/data-sources/sentinel-data-lake.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
