What is the API

The API section lets Organization admins and owners generate and manage access credentials for the API to automate or script actions.

Using the API, you can do almost everything available in the Dashboard (the Dashboard uses the same API), including:

• View, create, and modify Profiles
• View, create, and modify Devices
• View and modify authorized IP lists

Create a new API token

1. Go to API and click +.

2. Name the token and choose a type:

   • Read — View-only access
   • Write — View and modify data

Optionally, set Allowed IPs to restrict where the token can be used from.

Edit an existing token (type and allowed IPs)

You can update a token’s scope and network restrictions at any time:

• In API, click the pencil icon next to a token to open the modal.
• Change the Type (Read/Write) and/or Allowed IPs.
• Save your changes.

Tip: Tighten security by limiting tokens to the minimum necessary scope and adding specific allowed IPs for automation hosts.

API Documentation is important reading if you wish to use the API.
