info:
  title: Cortex XSOAR Incident Response Orchestration
  summary: Create an XSOAR incident, run a response playbook against it, then log a war room entry.
  description: >-
    A Cortex XSOAR orchestration flow. The workflow creates an incident with an
    investigation, executes a named response playbook against the new incident,
    and records a work note in the incident's war room investigation. The XSOAR
    API key is passed inline as the Authorization header on each step, matching
    the spec's apiKey security scheme. Every step spells out its request inline
    so the response flow can be read and executed without opening the underlying
    OpenAPI description.
