Get Your Advanced WildFire Public Cloud API Key From the Palo Alto Networks Support Portal

Follow these steps to retrieve the API key used to access the WildFire public API using the Palo Alto Networks Support Portal:
Palo Alto Networks recommends token-based API authentication for all new and existing WildFire API workflows. Token-based authentication provides stronger security through tenant isolation (TSG-ID), service account binding, and centralized credential management in Strata Cloud Manager. API key authentication and the legacy WildFire portal are being deprecated—you must use Strata Cloud Manager to create and manage all WildFire API credentials going forward. Migrate your existing API key workflows to token-based authentication to avoid service disruption when API key support ends.
If you are a WildFire Standalone API user, this transition does not apply to you, and you may continue using the CSP to manage your API keys.
  1. Navigate to the WildFireWildFire API Keys page.
  2. Select the WildFire public API key that you wish to use.
    Your account may have more than one WildFire public API key. Choose one that is valid and has an Expiration Date that is in the future.
  3. When you are finished retrieving your WildFire public API key(s), logout from your Palo Alto Networks Support account.
