Operations 5

Each operation below carries the questions people ask an LLM about it and the instructions they give an agent to run it. Generated by API Evangelist overlay

GET /dataConnections List data connections · Microsoft Azure Get Dataconnections #

Ask an LLM

“Which data connections are sending my attack surface data out?”

“Can I page through data connections with a page size?”

Tell an agent

List all data connections.

List {maxpagesize} data connections starting after {skip}.

GET /dataConnections/{dataConnectionName} Get a data connection · Microsoft Azure Get Dataconnections Dataconnectionname #

Ask an LLM

“How do I view the settings of one data connection?”

“What frequency is a given data connection exporting at?”

Tell an agent

Get data connection {dataConnectionName}.

Show the export schedule of data connection {dataConnectionName}.

PUT /dataConnections/{dataConnectionName} Create or replace a data connection · Microsoft Azure Put Dataconnections Dataconnectionname #

Ask an LLM

“How do I set up a data connection to export assets to Log Analytics or Data Explorer?”

“Can I choose which content and how often a data connection sends?”

Tell an agent

Create data connection {dataConnectionName} of kind {kind}.

Replace data connection {dataConnectionName} to send {content} every {frequency}.

DELETE /dataConnections/{dataConnectionName} Delete a data connection · Microsoft Azure Delete Dataconnections Dataconnectionname #

Ask an LLM

“How do I stop and remove a data connection?”

“Can I delete a data connection by name?”

Tell an agent destructive · confirm first

Delete data connection {dataConnectionName}.

Remove the export connection {dataConnectionName}.

POST /dataConnections:validate Validate a data connection before saving · Microsoft Azure Post Dataconnections:validate #

Ask an LLM

“Can I test a data connection's settings without creating it?”

“Is there a dry-run check for a new data connection configuration?”

Tell an agent

Validate a data connection of kind {kind}.

Check data connection {name} with content {content} before saving.
