Authenticate public APIs

The Security Compliance Management API supports authentication via personal access tokens associated with Security Compliance Management accounts. Authentication tokens are tied to the permissions granted to the user through role-based access control (RBAC), and they provide the user with the appropriate access to application programming interfaces (APIs).

Before you begin
You need the personal access token you created in Create and manage personal access tokens as a user. It is required for authentication.

Using personal access token to authenticate the Security Compliance Management public API.

Add the personal access token you copied when creating the token and add this to the Authorization header of the API call. For example: 
curl --insecure --header \ 
 "Authorization: <token value>" \ 
 "https://<hostname>/comply/api/v1/user"
