PingAccess APIs are REST APIs that provide complete administrative capabilities of the product. They can be called from custom applications or from command line tools, such as cURL.

These endpoints are only available on the admin.port defined in the /pa-admin-api/v3/api-docs/<PA_HOME>/conf/run.properties file, for example, https://<PA_HOME>:<PORT>/pa-admin-api/v3/api-docs/.

Note:

If you selected the Use context root as reserved resource base path check box on your PingAccess application, this feature creates an instance of any reserved PingAccess resources under the application’s context root. As such, the context root of the application needs to prepend the reserved context application root (/pa by default) in any file paths that reference it. If the context root of your application is myApp, the file path would start with /myApp/pa.

Important:

For enhanced API security, you must include X-XSRF-Header: PingAccess in all requests and use the application/json content type for PUT/POST requests.
