URL Entity Analyzer - Microsoft Sentinel Playbook
Activating the 'Deploy' button initiates the deployment of an Azure Logic App integrated with Microsoft Sentinel MCP Actions, utilizing a Microsoft Sentinel entity trigger.
The Logic App is configured to run manually when a URL entity is selected in a Sentinel incident. This Logic App analyzes suspicious URLs and provides detailed security insights including classification, analysis results, and recommendations.

Important Note: As of now, this playbook only works when triggered from the Microsoft Sentinel portal in Azure. It is not currently supported in the Defender portal.
The playbook can be manually triggered when:
- A URL entity is identified in a Microsoft Sentinel incident
- Security analysts need detailed analysis of suspicious URLs
- Automated threat intelligence is required for URL-based investigations
After the analysis is complete, the MCP Entity Analyzer conducts a comprehensive investigation of the URL entity and automatically adds a detailed comment to the incident with:
- Classification: Security classification of the URL
- Entity Type: Confirmation of the URL entity type
- Analysis Result: Detailed security analysis findings
- Recommendation: Security recommendations based on the analysis
- Disclaimer: AI-generated analysis disclaimer
- Data Sources: List of data sources used in the analysis
Prerequisites
Prior to beginning the installation process, it's crucial to confirm that you have met the following prerequisites:
- The user deploying this Logic App needs to have a Contributor Role
- The user has permissions to access Microsoft Sentinel workspace
- You have the Workspace ID for your Sentinel environment
- The SentinelMCP connector is available in your environment
- Access to Microsoft Sentinel portal in Azure (not Defender portal)
Parameters
During deployment, you'll need to provide:
- PlaybookName: Name for the Logic App (default: "Entity-analyzer-Url-Trigger")
- lookBackDays: Number of days to look back for entity analysis (default: 10 days)
- workspaceId: Your Microsoft Sentinel workspace ID (required)
Deployment
To deploy the URL Entity Analyzer Logic App:
- Press on the Deploy button below
- Select your subscription and resource group (use the same tenant where Microsoft Sentinel is configured)
- Provide the required Workspace ID parameter
- Configure the lookBackDays parameter if needed (default is 10 days)

Post Deployment
After successful deployment:
- The Logic App will be automatically enabled and ready to use
- Authenticate the connections: Go to the Logic App → API connections and authenticate:
- Microsoft Sentinel connection: Authenticate with a user that has Sentinel permissions
- SentinelMCP connection: Authenticate with Microsoft Sentinel MCP permissions
- The playbook will be available to run manually from incident entities
- Results will be automatically added as comments to the relevant incidents

How to Run the Playbook
To manually trigger the URL Entity Analyzer:
- Navigate to Microsoft Sentinel in the Azure portal
- Go to Incidents and open an incident containing URL entities
- Click on the Entities tab
- Select a URL entity from the list
- Click on Run playbook button in the top right
- Select Entity-analyzer-Url-Trigger from the playbook list
- The analysis will run and results will be added as a comment to the incident

How It Works
- Manual Trigger: The Logic App is manually triggered when a security analyst selects a URL entity in a Sentinel incident and runs the playbook
- Analysis: The URL is sent to Microsoft Sentinel's MCP Entity Analyzer for comprehensive analysis using the SentinelMCP connector
