The credentials provided in `secrets` are validated against the source before the configuration is stored and never returned in subsequent responses. This endpoint requires the `manage_integrations` permission. OAuth apps require the `manage_integrations` authorization [scope](https://docs.datadoghq.com/api/latest/scopes.md#security-monitoring) to access this endpoint. ### Request #### Body Data (required) The definition of the new integration configuration. {% tab title="Model" %} | Parent field | Field | Type | Description | | ------------ | ---------------------------------- | ------ | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | | | data [*required*] | object | The entity context sync configuration to create. | | data | attributes [*required*] | object | The attributes of the entity context sync configuration to create. | | attributes | domain [*required*] | string | The domain associated with the external entity source. | | attributes | integration_type [*required*] | enum | The type of external source that provides entities to Cloud SIEM.
