API Key Management

API Key Management

Sense Defence Enterprise provides a RESTful HTTP API, covering all of the Server's functionality, therefore allowing complete usage of the system without the internal UI. Clients can use this API from other software or from the command line (via tools like curl), or they can construct their own UIs.

Create and manage API keys with granular permissions enabling you to integrate Sense Defence into your environment and streamline processes. 

Overview

  1. Every user can manage their own API keys. API keys inherit the user's permissions and organisational access.
  2. Add a name and description to an API key to indicate what it is used for.
  3. User can set the key expiration time and granular permissions in the Generate API key screen
  4. API key is hidden by default but user can view this toggling the view icon.

Create API Keys

Navigate to Application Tab and select Profile > API Keys from left side menu
Click on "Add API Key" button on top right side
Give the Name and Expiration in days
Provide what level of Permissions this key needs and Create.



API keys always inherit the user's permissions and organisational access.
