Learn to integrate Cortex XDR with Torq: IOCs, incident management, and API key validation for seamless workflow automation.

Updated over 6 months ago

The Cortex XDR integration enables you to scan endpoints, upload IOCs, manage incidents, and validate API keys as part of Torq workflows.

Create an XDR API key

When you create an XDR API key, you'll need to copy and save several items that you'll need later to configure an XDR integration in Torq.

  • API key

  • API key ID

  • Cortex XDR URL

  1. In your XDR portal, go to Settings > Configurations.
