Getting Started

The integrations API is a REST API that allows you to integrate your remote data platform with Immuta so that Immuta can manage and enforce access controls on your data.

To configure an integration using the API, you must have the APPLICATION_ADMIN Immuta permission.

Authenticate with the API

There are two methods for making an authenticated request to the integrations API. Select a tab below for instructions.

API key method

1. Generate your API key on the API Keys tab on your profile page and save the API key somewhere secure.

2. You will pass this API key in the authorization header when you make a request, as illustrated in the example below:

   curl \
       --request GET \
       --header "Content-Type: application/json" \
       --header "Authorization: 846e9e43c86a4ct1be14290d95127d13f" \
       https://www.organization.immuta.com/integrations

Bearer token method

1. Generate your API key on the API Keys tab on your profile page and save the API key somewhere secure.

2. Save your API key in a .json file.

   {
   "apikey": "846e9e43c86a4ct1be14290d95127d13f"
   }

3. Make the following request to the authentication endpoint:

   curl \
       --request POST \
       --header "Content-Type: application/json" \
       --data @example_payload.json \
       https://www.organization.immuta.com/bim/apikey/authenticate

4. You will receive a response that includes your bearer token. Pass that bearer token in the Authorization header when you make a request, as illustrated in the example below:

   curl \
       --request GET \
       --header "Content-Type: application/json" \
       --header "Authorization: Bearer dea464c07bd07300095caa8" \
       https://demo.immuta.com/integrations

Configure your integration

Use the POST /integrations endpoint to configure the integration so that Immuta can enforce access controls on tables registered as Immuta data sources. See a section below for a sample request and details about configuring your integration.

Amazon S3 example

Private preview: This integration is available to select accounts. Contact your Immuta representative for details.

curl -X 'POST' \
    'https://www.organization.immuta.com/integrations' \
    -H 'accept: application/json' \
    -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
    -H 'Authorization: 846e9e43c86a4ct1be14290d95127d13f' \
    -d '{
    "type": "Native S3",
    "autoBootstrap": false,
    "config": {
        "name": "S3 integration",
        "awsAccountId": "123456789",
        "awsRegion": "us-east-1",
        "awsLocationRole": "arn:aws:iam::123456789:role/access-grants-instance-role",
        "awsLocationPath": "s3://",
        "authenticationType": "accessKey",
        "awsAccessKeyId": "123456789",
        "awsSecretAccessKey": "123456789"
    }
    }'

1. Set up an Access Grants instance.
2. Copy the request example.

3. Replace the values in the request with your Immuta URL and API key or bearer token.
4. Change the config values to your own, where

   • name is the name for the integration that is unique across all Amazon S3 integrations configured in Immuta.

   • awsAccountId is the ID of your AWS account.

   • awsRegion is the account's AWS region (such as us-east1).

   • awsLocationRole is the AWS IAM role ARN assigned to the base access grants location. This is the role the AWS Access Grants service assumes to vend credentials to the grantee.

   • awsLocationPath is the base S3 location prefix that Immuta will use for this connection when registering S3 data sources. This path must be unique across all S3 integrations configured in Immuta.

   • awsAccessKeyId is the AWS access key ID of the AWS account configuring the integration.

   • awsSecretAccessKey is the AWS secret access key of the AWS account configuring the integration.

For more configuration examples, see the Configure an Amazon S3 integration guide. For information about the configuration payload, see the Integration payload reference guide.
