I am developing a .Net Core console application and I'm trying to access the audit logs from the Audit Log section of the Security and Compliance Center. I have looked at multiple resources online but nothing has worked properly. I am also unsure of whether I need to use Microsoft Graph or Office 365 Management permissions to get this to work in Azure Active Directory. Note that I am trying to get the audit logs from the security and compliance center, NOT the audit logs for Azure Active Directory.

    @Eisenhaur, Liam , Thank you for reaching out. Do take a look at the following article https://video2.skills-academy.com/en-us/rest/api/securitycenter/alerts/list

    Azure Security Center doesn't contain Audit Logs rather contains the following:

    1. Alerts
    2. Secure Score
    3. Secure-Score Control Policies
    4. Errors

    More details on this can be found here: https://video2.skills-academy.com/en-us/graph/api/resources/security-api-overview?view=graph-rest-1.0

    Hope this helps.
