Seamless access to your Immersive data Our REST API offers easy access to your Immersive data. Once authenticated, you can access your organization’s data by making REST API requests to any of the available endpoints. These endpoints can be reviewed in our REST API documentation. What this means for you Data at speed – Your Immersive data is just a request away. With each API request, you can quickly gather and manipulate your data as needed. Flexible design – Utilizing our REST API offers significant control over the process of transmitting data from Immersive to a target system of choice. System integration – Each API response will be received as JSON formatted data, allowing straightforward integration with BI systems, databases, or any other target system. How it works API requests to our various available endpoints allow you to seamlessly pull Immersive data and relay it to your system of choice. Gathering data via the REST API offers unparalleled flexibility and control over when and how your data is transmitted. Who can do this To generate an API key and secret token, you must have an administrator account in Immersive. If you’re interested in working with the REST API, but don’t have the proper permissions to initiate the process, please reach out to an Immersive administrator within your organization. Getting started From an Immersive administrator account, navigate to the Platform Settings sections within the Manage tab at the top of your screen. Once in the platform settings, navigate to API within the sidebar. You should then see the option to Generate API key. Select this option and add an appropriate label that describes the intended use. After clicking Generate, you should see an Access key and Secret token that can be copied and utilized for the initial authentication. Once you’ve generated your Access key and Secret token, please follow our REST API documentation and API Guide for authentication, requests, and pagination guidance. The documentation also includes each of the available API endpoints. If you have any questions or issues as you implement your API connection, please contact our support team, and we will help ensure a smooth integration. The future of cybersecurity skills development is here The Immersive REST API represents a significant step forward in cybersecurity skills development. By combining the power of hands-on learning with personalized pathways and data-driven insights, we're empowering organizations to build the cybersecurity teams of the future.
