# Microsoft Sentinel CCF Push Connectors - Getting Started Guide

This guide helps you understand, build, and deploy push-based codeless connectors for Microsoft Sentinel using the Codeless Connector Framework (CCF) Push.

## What is CCF Push?
16-
17-
CCF Push connectors enable your applications to send security events directly to Microsoft Sentinel in real-time. Unlike traditional polling-based connectors that periodically fetch data from APIs, push connectors let you push data to Sentinel as events occur in your system.
18-
19-
CCF Push provide several key benefits:
20-
21-
- **Application-controlled data flow:** Your application controls when and how to send data, enabling intelligent batching strategies and optimized network usage
22-
- **Real-time ingestion:** Send data immediately as events happen, without waiting for polling intervals
23-
- **Simplified architecture:** No need to maintain API endpoints for Sentinel to poll
24-
- **Template-based provisioning:** Deployment creates ARM templates for DCRs, custom tables, Entra application registration, and client secrets - you receive the connection details to configure in your sending application
25-
- **Secure authentication:** Uses Microsoft Entra applications with OAuth 2.0 for secure data submission

### The push model vs pull model
31-
32-
Understanding the difference between push and pull data ingestion models helps you choose the right connector type for your scenario.

**CCF pull connectors - Polling-Based:**
35-
36-
In the pull model, Microsoft Sentinel periodically polls your API to retrieve data:
37-
38-
- Microsoft Sentinel initiates connections to your data source API on a configured schedule
39-
- Data arrives at regular polling intervals (for example, every 5 minutes)
40-
- You must maintain a publicly accessible API endpoint
41-
- Sentinel's polling infrastructure manages the data collection process
