Description
Scope
FortiAuthenticator v6.2.0 and above.
Solution
An API (Application Programming Interface) is a set of defined interfaces to perform certain tasks. Consuming information from FortiAuthenticator is one example: such as using it to get, create and modify information related users, attributes and other related data.
FortiAuthenticator provides a REST (Representational State Transfer) API for interaction with components of the system. External programs interact with the REST API over HTTP protocol. After receiving the request, the FortiAuthenticator API sends back an HTTP response code.
The Fortinet Security Fabric brings together the concepts of convergence and consolidation to provide comprehensive cybersecurity protection for all users, devices, and applications and across all network edges.
