Instructions

The following paragraphs detail how to setup the manually maintained Postman Collections and required Environment Variables for Prisma Cloud API requests.

Setup steps

• Import the 4 files in root of this repo (3 Collections and 1 Environment) into Postman.

• Set the Postman Environment variables. You will need to set:

  • api-endpoint
  • compute-api-endpoint
  • aporeto-api-endpoint
  • namespace
  • ACCESS_KEY
  • SECRET_KEY

  

  

  

• Populate the compute-api-endpoint environment variable.

  • Go to Compute > Manage > System > Utilities, and copy the string under Path to Console
  • The URL will look something like: https://us-east1.cloud.twistlock.com/us-1-123456789

• Populate the aporeto-api-endpoint environment variable.

  • Click on the key icon at the bottom of any page on Cloud Network Security
  • The URL will look something like : `https://api.east-01.network.prismacloud.io'

• Populate the api-enpoint environment variable.

  • The Admin console you see when you log in determines the the API Endpoint.

  • The value that corresponds to your Admin console below should replace the api-endpoint variable.

    Prisma Cloud Admin Console	api-endpoint
    https://app.prismacloud.io	api.prismacloud.io
    https://app2.prismacloud.io	api2.prismacloud.io
    https://app3.prismacloud.io	api3.prismacloud.io
    https://app4.prismacloud.io	api4.prismacloud.io
    https://app.anz.prismacloud.io	api.anz.prismacloud.io
    https://app.eu.prismacloud.io	api.eu.prismacloud.io
    https://app2.eu.prismacloud.io	api2.eu.prismacloud.io
    https://app.gov.prismacloud.io	api.gov.prismacloud.io
    https://app.prismacloud.cn	api.prismacloud.cn
    https://app.ca.prismacloud.io	api.ca.prismacloud.io
    https://app.sg.prismacloud.io	api.sg.prismacloud.io

    The rest of the variables shouldn't need to be altered, and are either auto-generated or for future or other scenarios

• A sample populated Environment before generating any JWT tokens might look like as follows:

Postman Variable	Use	Value/Example
api-endpoint	Main API endpoint for Prisma Cloud requests	api.prismacloud.io
token	JWT token auto-generated after the /login request
compute-api-endpoint	API endpoint for all things within the Compute tab	https://us-east1.cloud.twistlock.com/us-1-123456789
compute-token	JWT token auto-generated after the Compute /authenticate request
api-version	Used only for the Compute collection for future API versions	v1
console-port	Used only for self-hosted versions of the Compute Console
aporeto-api-endpoint	API endpoint for all things within the Microsegmentation tab	https://api.east-01.network.prismacloud.io
aporeto-token	JWT token auto-generated after the Microsegmentation /issue request
namespace	The namespace on CNS where you will be operating	/859889522116745232/my-cloud-account/Application

Advanced Postman scenarios using Collection Runner

In the Collection_Runner folder, there are specific examples for use-cases where using Postman's Collection Runner makes sense. These runners provide an easy way to iterate through files and perform bulk API calls. More instructions can be found in in the README within this folder.

That's it!

The Collections are not fully complete, so if you find a request that hasn't been created (or needs to be updated) please feel free to submit a PR.

Notes

Accessing Multiple Tenants

You can easily switch between Prisma Cloud Tenants by creating multiple Environments. To do this just import the Prisma Cloud.postman_environment.json file again and set the new api endpoints and credentials. Be sure to change the environment name so you can tell your environments apart!
