# Integrating PingIntelligence

After the policy is deployed, integrate PingIntelligence.

## Before you begin

Refer to the [ASE](../pingintelligence_reference_guide/pingintelligence_ase.html) and [ABS AI Engine](../pingintelligence_reference_guide/pingintelligence_abs_ai_engine.html) Admin Guides.

## About this task

To integrate PingIntelligence:

## Steps

1. Refer to the following:

   * [ASE ports](../pingintelligence_reference_guide/lyx1564008965230.html)

   * [API naming guidelines](../pingintelligence_reference_guide/pingintelligence_api_naming_guidelines.html)

   * Adding APIs to ASE in [Defining an API using API JSON configuration file in sideband mode](../pingintelligence_reference_guide/pingintelligence_define_api_json_file_sideband.html).

   You can add individual APIs, or you can configure a global API. For more information on global API, see [API discovery and configuration](../managing_pingintelligence_for_apis/pingintelligence_api_discovery_configuration.html).

   * [ABS AI-based security](../pingintelligence_reference_guide/pingintelligence_abs_ai_based_security.html)

2. After you have added your APIs in ASE, train the API model. Refer to the following for guidance.

   The training of API model is completed in API Behavioral Security (ABS).

   * [Training the ABS model](../managing_pingintelligence_for_apis/pingintelligence_training_abs_model.html)

   * [API reports using Postman](../pingintelligence_reference_guide/pingintelligence_api_reports_using_postman.html).

   * [Accessing the PingIntelligence Dashboard](../pingintelligence_reference_guide/pingintelligence_access_dashboard.html).

## Next steps

PingIntelligence API discovery is a process to discover, and report APIs from your API environment. The discovered APIs are reported in the PingIntelligence Dashboard. APIs are discovered when a global API JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) *(tooltip: \<div class="paragraph">
\<p>An open, lightweight data-interchange format that uses human-readable text to store and transmit data.\</p>
\</div>)* is defined in the ASE.

For more information, see [API discovery and configuration](../managing_pingintelligence_for_apis/pingintelligence_api_discovery_configuration.html) . You can edit the discovered API's JSON definition in the Dashboard before adding them to ASE. For more information on editing and configuring API discovery, see [Discovered APIs](../managing_pingintelligence_for_apis/pingintelligence_discovered_apis.html).
