Make an API Call
You can make an API call to Strata Cloud Manager when you have done all of the following:
- Created at least one TSG.
- Created at least one service account.
- Assigned a role to the service account.
- Obtained an access token.
To make an API call, use the base URL:
https://api.strata.paloaltonetworks.com
plus the URI identified for the API in its API reference page. You must also
provide your access token on the request using the Authorization HTTP
header using the Bearer keyword.
For example, using curl:
curl -o --location "https://api.strata.paloaltonetworks.com/config/v1/jobs" \
-H "Authorization: Bearer <ACCESS_TOKEN>" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json"
Unified Prisma SD-WAN Usage
For Unified Prisma SD-WAN API calls, immediately after generating an access token, you must make a call to
GET /sdwan/v2.1/api/profile
If this isn't done, subsequent calls to the SD-WAN API endpoints will return a 403.
About x-panw-region
Several services require an additional x-panw-region header on their API calls to identify the
region where your data is stored. Most Strata Cloud Manager services do not require this header because the
information is available in the access token that you use to authorize the call.
The services that do require an x-panw-region header in their APIs are:
For example:
curl -X POST "https://api.strata.paloaltonetworks.com/mt/monitor/v1/agg/alerts/list?agg_by=tenant" \
-H 'accept: application/json' \
-H "Authorization: Bearer <ACCESS_TOKEN>" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-H "X-PANW-Region: de" \
-d '{"properties":[{"property":"sub_tenant_id"},{"property":"total_count"}],"filter":{"operator":"AND","rules":[{"property":"domain","operator":"in","values":["External","external"]},{"property":"event_time","operator":"last_n_days","values":[7]}]}}'
When making calls to these services, it is an error to not include this header.
NOTE: It is an error to include the x-panw-region header on calls to a service that
does not require it.
x-panw-region values
The X-PANW-Region header parameter is the region you chose when setting up your tenant. It must be one of the following:
| Region | Country |
|---|---|
| americas | United States |
| au | Australia |
| ca | Canada |
| de | Germany |
| europe | European Union |
| in | India |
| jp | Japan |
| sg | Southeast Asia |
| uk | United Kingdom |
If you need to verify which region to use, you can use the Aggregate Monitoring APIs to list the tenant hierarchy. The appropriate region is in the response.
