Description

Automation Management Services

To automate complex workflows across multiple third-party security services, you can now integrate Automation Management with third-party services. For a service, create or import an instance you created in Postman, Swagger, or Python, then create actions for the service.

Automation Management Actions

You can now interact with third-party services you integrated with Automation Management using actions. You can use actions in playbooks to call third-party services and use that data to automate complex workflows.

Advanced Playbooks

You can now automate complex workflows using advanced playbooks. With the new experience, you can:

  • Visualize playbook logic and and easily manage steps of a complex workflow

  • Run actions, branches, and loops

  • Test the entire playbook or specific steps of the playbook

  • Save a playbooks as a draft and deploy it only when it's ready to run

  • View the playbook run history

Pre-built playbooks have also been converted to advanced playbooks.

No Trigger Playbooks

You can now create playbooks without triggers. These playbooks can only be manually run on a specific case or alert.

Automation Management is now more deeply integrated with Threat Center. You can now:

  • Manually run a playbook or action on a specific case or alert.
