# ASE and ABS integration

Integrate ASE and ABS.

The ABS engine installation process is summarized below:

* Connect ASE to the ABS AI engine for ASE to send access log files to ABS.

* Enable ASE to ABS engine communication: Just connecting ASE and the ABS engine does not mean that access logs are sent by ASE to ABS. ASE to ABS communication has to be enabled separately.

* Add API JSON files to ASE. The API JSON files define your API and its various parameters. For more information, see [Defining an API using API JSON configuration file in inline mode](../pingintelligence_reference_guide/pingintelligence_defining_api_json_configuration_inline.html).

* Train the ABS AI engine models to analyze and report on your API traffic.
