Axonius uses IBM QRadar REST API V20.0.

Permissions

The value supplied in API Token must have read access to devices.

Both of these methods produce a token that is only displayed once. Please be sure to copy down the token at the end of the creation process as it can't be viewed again.

IBM QRadar On Cloud users may need to also whitelist the IP address of the Axonius instance. Instructions on doing so can be found here: Editing or deleting an allowlisted IP address

The following endpoints require permissions:

  • /api/asset_model/* - Requires Vulnerability Management or Assets permissions. Data returned is restricted based on the security profile assigned.
