Endpoint Registration

How to get there

In the Powertech Antivirus application in HelpSystems One Navigation Pane, choose Settings > Endpoint Registration.

What it does

The Endpoint Registration page allows you to identify the status of the API key required for endpoint registration. It also allows you to copy, edit, enable/disable, and regenerate the API key.

Options

API Key

Click to show a menu with the following actions:

  • Copy. Copies the API key to the clipboard.
  • Enable/Disable Key. API keys are enabled by default. You can disable an API key if it is not needed. When Require API Key is set to On, the API key must be enabled in order to add endpoints.
  • Regenerate Key. This option regenerates the API key. This action may be required if the old key has been compromised, or as part of, for example, a security policy that requires the key to be regenerated periodically.
  • Edit Key. Opens the Edit API Key dialog where you can manually edit the API Key.
  • Close. Dismisses the menu.

Require API Key

When off, endpoints can register without an API key or with any properly formatted UUID/API key (less secure).

Require Approval of New Endpoints

When off, endpoints are automatically approved (Allowed) on the Connection Settings list after registration (less secure).
