Your SASE platform, programmable.
The Cato API enables programmable access to your account's data on the Cato SASE Cloud Platform.
Extract with GraphQL. Automate with mutations.
GraphQL returns exactly the data you request in fewer calls, and mutation APIs let you script bulk configuration changes across sites, hosts, and routing.
Plug into your stack.
Ready-to-use integrations with leading SIEM, SOAR, and security tools.
Manual mandddagement doesn't scale.
Manual config at scale
Bulk configuration changes done by hand are slow and error-prone across large deployments.
Data trapped in silos
Security and networking data is hard to extract into SIEM, SOAR, and archival workflows.
Custom integration burden
Building integrations with every enterprise tool in-house is costly and slow.
Ungoverned access
Programmatic access without scoping and an audit trail is a real security risk.
Extract, automate,
integrate.
Generate scoped tokens
Admins create access tokens in the CMA, restricted to specific authorized source IP addresses.
Query with GraphQL
Extract exactly the data you need, efficiently, into your enterprise platforms and workflows.
Automate with mutations
Script bulk configuration changes to manage sites, hosts, and routing at scale.
