API Keys
An API Key consists of an Access Key and a Secret Key. API Keys authenticate with the Nessus REST API (version 6.4 or greater) and pass with requests using the X-ApiKeys
HTTP header.
Note:
- API Keys are only presented upon initial generation. Store API keys in a safe location.
- API Keys cannot be retrieved by Nessus. If you lose your API Key, you must generate a new API Key.
- Regenerating an API Key will immediately deauthorize any applications currently using the key.
