APIs

Axonius uses the Bluewater Connect API.

Permissions

To access the API, authentication is required using one of the following methods:

  • OAuth 2.0 (Bearer Token) – Obtain a token via POST /oauth/token, then include it in the Authorization header as: Authorization: Bearer {token}

  • Basic Authentication with API Key – Use Basic Auth with the username ApiKey and the password as your API key. The header should look like: Authorization: Basic {base64(ApiKey:your_api_key)}

All endpoints are protected under the Authorization: all security scheme, meaning valid authorization is mandatory for all operations. The token or API key used must have permissions associated with the all scope.
