For SSPM to detect posture risks in your Mural instance, you must onboard your Mural instance to SSPM. Through the onboarding process, SSPM connects to a Mural API by using an Enterprise API key. You will generate this key from the Company Dashboard in Mural. After connecting to the Mural API, SSPM scans your Mural instance for misconfigured settings and account risks.
The supported Mural account plan for SSPM scans is the Enterprise plan. This plan is required for you to create an Enterprise API key.
To onboard your Mural instance, SSPM requires the following information, which you will specify during the onboarding process.
ItemDescription
API Key
A generated character string that gives SSPM access to Mural's Enterprise API. You configure this key to limit SSPM's access to only the scopes that SSPM requires.
Required permissions: You must be a Company Admin to create the Enterprise API key.
To onboard your Mural instance, you complete the following actions:
  1. Identify the Mural account that you will use to generate the Enterprise API key.
    Required permissions: The account that generates the API key must be assigned to the Company Admin role in Mural.
  2. Open a web browser to the Mural login page, and log in to the account you identified.
  3. Generate and copy the Enterprise API key.
    1. Navigate to the Company Dashboard in Mural.
      To navigate to the Company Dashboard, locate your avatar in the upper-right corner of the Mural page and select <your-avatar> Manage company.
    2. From the Company Dashboard's left-hand navigation pane, select API keys.
      The API keys item appears under the Development section.
    3. On the API Keys page, click Create API Key.
      The Create API key dialog prompts you to select the API scopes that the key will authorize SSPM to access.
    4. In the Create API key dialog, select the following scopes, which SSPM requires:
      • Member information
      • User activity logs
      • Reports
    5. In the Create API keys dialog, click Create API key.
      Mural generates and displays the Enterprise API key.
    6. Copy the API key and paste it into a text file.
      Don’t continue to the next step unless you have copied the API key. This is the only time that Mural will display the API key, and you must provide this key to SSPM during the onboarding process.
