Vectra RUX - Create Incident for Escalated Account Detection or Unresolved Priority Account

Description

This query creates a Microsoft Sentinel incident when a detection on an account entity has been escalated in Vectra (investigation_status = escalated). Escalation indicates that a human analyst or MDR service has reviewed the detection and determined it requires immediate customer attention or notification. One incident is created per detection - grouping is based on alert display name so that repeated rule evaluations against the same detection do not create duplicate incidents. This query creates a Microsoft Sentinel incident when Vectra AI identifies an account entity with one or more detections marked as unresolved and prioritized (unresolved_priority = true). Vectra's AI engine assigns priority based on attack rating, velocity, breadth, and identity privilege level. This rule surfaces account-based threats that require analyst attention. Incidents are grouped per account entity and remain open while the threat persists. Once all associated detections are resolved in Vectra, the incident can be closed in Microsoft Sentinel.
