Using the API

What to expect

Protegrity API Playground features functionality derived from the original suite of Protegrity products in a form of API calls. Our API endpoints are easy-to-use and ask for minimal configuration. The Playground divides available endpoint portfolio into three families:

  • Data Protection endpoints, covering sensitive data protection. Users can decide to transform various data types, from numbers, strings, and dates without any inherent logic tom specific PII attributes like postcodes, or social security numbers.
  • Sensitive Data Discovery endpoints, which allow users to detect and classify sensitive data within payloads.
  • GenAI Security endpoints that combine the capabilities of the above, allowing users to perform automatic discovery and protection of sensitive data and specify their risk appetite.

Note: Protegrity does not store any data received from external API requests.
