ESET Connect (API)

The ESET Connect is a REST API gateway between a client and a collection of ESET backend services. ESET Connect acts as a reverse proxy to accept all application programming interface (API) calls, aggregate the services required to fulfill these calls and return the appropriate result. The ESET Connect allows for automated monitoring, security, and administration activities.

API is available for ESET Cloud Office Security Quarantine and Detections (Incident Management).

The following steps are required to start using the ESET Connect API:

1.Ensure your environment meets the network prerequisites.

2.Log into the ESET Business Account or ESET MSP Administrator portal and create a new user account dedicated for use with API. Under the Access Rights section, enable the Integrations using the toggle.

3.Authenticate your API user account with the Identity Provider (IDS) and obtain the JSON Web Token (JWT).

4.Add an Authorization header containing the JWT to an API call.
