Using API Tokens for GraphQL and REST APIs in Panther

Last updated: June 30, 2025

QUESTION

How do I use API tokens to access Panther's GraphQL and REST APIs? Are separate tokens needed for each API?

ANSWER

The same API token works for both Panther's GraphQL and REST APIs. However, there are two key requirements for successful API access:

  1. Appropriate Permissions: Ensure your API token has the necessary permissions for the specific queries or operations you want to execute.

  2. Correct URL Format: Each API requires a different URL format:

    • GraphQL API URL format: https://api.your-panther-instance.runpanther.net/public/graphql

    • REST API URL format: https://api.your-panther-instance.runpanther.net
