USM Anywhere™

API Clients

Role Availability Read-Only Analyst Manager

USM Anywhere offers a REST API framework that enables you to customize elements of data in your environment. The APIs return JSON responses with errors that use HTTP response codes. To access the API, you will need to create a client ID and secret code in the USM Anywhere interface, and use that information to create a token. USM Anywhere uses OAuth 2.0 to authenticate against the REST APIs.

Edition: The API is available in the Standard and Premium editions of USM Anywhere.

See https://cybersecurity.att.com/pricing for more information about the features and support provided by each of the USM Anywhere editions.
