The CDO REST API empowers organizations to streamline security operations, improve efficiency, and strengthen their overall security posture.
To access CDO APIs, you must include an authentication token in your requests. Follow these steps to get your API token:

Log in to CDO
Go to the Settings page
Generate an API token (which does not expire)

Include this token in the header of your API requests using the Bearer token method for the desired tenant.

Example of a request to get a list of devices

curl -X GET
–url https://edge.us.cdo.cisco.com/api/rest/v1/inventory/devices
–header “Authorization: Bearer $API_TOKEN”
