Welcome to the Security Update API Tutorial page!

 

The "Security Update Guide" dashboard provides information on security updates and advisories released by Microsoft. Microsoft also provides Security Update API, which enables you to retrieve security updates information.

Based on customer feedback, we have worked to provide easy to follow guidance, and we are happy to announce that a series of Security Update API demo videos are now available on our Microsoft Support YouTube channel. The series will walk you through how to access the API and how to retrieve security update data using the API.

Enjoy the series of the videos as a starter to your Security Update API journey.
