# API discovery

ABS discovers the APIs when the discovery is enabled. The automated setup sets up the discovery mode. APIs are discovered by ABS when a global API is defined in PingIntelligence ASE. The discovered APIs from ABS are added to ASE. API model training starts after the APIs are added in ASE. For more information, See [API discovery and configuration](../abs_ai_engine/pingintelligence_api_discovery_configuration.html).
