Get started with Cortex AgentiX APIs

Using the Cortex AgentiX APIs, you can integrate Cortex AgentiX with third-party apps or services to automate workflows and manage your AgentiX resources programmatically. The APIs let you build integrations that extend and orchestrate Cortex AgentiX across your security operations.

Before you can begin using Cortex AgentiX APIs, you must generate the following items in Cortex AgentiX:

Value	Description
API Key	The API Key is your unique identifier used as the Authorization:{key} header required for authenticating API calls. Depending on your desired security level, you can generate two types of API keys, Advanced or Standard, from Cortex XSIAM.
API Key ID	The API Key ID is your unique token used to authenticate the API Key. The header used when running an API call is x-xdr-auth-id:{key_id}.
FQDN	The FQDN is a unique host and domain name associated with each tenant.

Cortex AgentiX API URIs are made up of your tenant's FQDN, the API name, and endpoint path. For example, https://api-{fqdn}/agentix/public/v1/{endpoint_path}/.

The following steps describe how to generate the necessary key values and run your first API call:

1. Create a new API key.
2. Get your Cortex XSIAM API key ID.
3. Get your FQDN.
4. Make your first API call.
