The Semperis Lightning connector uses Azure Functions to ingest Semperis Lightning identity security data into Microsoft Sentinel. The connector deploys an Azure Function and collects data into custom Log Analytics tables for investigation and threat hunting.
Tables Ingested
This connector ingests data into the following tables:
| Table | Transformations | Ingestion API | Lake-Only |
|---|---|---|---|
LightningAttackPathLinks_CL |
? | ✓ | ? |
LightningAttackPaths_CL |
✗ | ✓ | ✗ |
LightningIOEResults_CL |
✗ | ✓ | ✗ |
LightningIOEsMetadata_CL |
? | ✓ | ? |
LightningIndicatorExecutions_CL |
? | ✓ | ? |
LightningTier0Attackers_CL |
? | ✓ | ? |
LightningTier0Nodes_CL |
✗ | ✓ | ✗ |
💡 Tip: Tables with Ingestion API support allow data ingestion via the Azure Monitor Data Collector API, which also enables custom transformations during ingestion.
Permissions
Resource Provider Permissions:
- Workspace (Workspace): read and write permissions on the workspace are required.
- Keys (Workspace): read permissions to shared keys for the workspace are required. See the documentation to learn more about workspace keys.
Custom Permissions:
- Microsoft.Web/sites permissions: Read and write permissions to Azure Functions to create a Function App is required. See the documentation to learn more about Azure Functions.

Setup Instructions
⚠️ Note: These instructions were automatically generated from the connector's user interface definition file using AI and may not be fully accurate. Please verify all configuration steps in the Microsoft Sentinel portal.
NOTE: This connector uses Azure Functions to connect to Semperis Lightning and pull data into Microsoft Sentinel. This might result in additional data ingestion costs. Check the Azure Functions pricing page for details.
(Optional Step) Securely store workspace and API authorization key(s) in Azure Key Vault. Azure Key Vault provides a secure mechanism to store and retrieve key values. Follow these instructions to use Azure Key Vault with an Azure Function App.
Ensure the workspace is added to Microsoft Sentinel before deploying the connector.
