Palo Alto Networks Cloud Accounts (AWS) API

To monitor the resources on your AWS cloud infrastructure, you must first add your AWS accounts to Prisma Cloud. When you add your cloud account to Prisma Cloud, the API integration between AWS and Prisma Cloud is established and you can begin monitoring the resources and identify potential security risks.The Cloud Account (AWS) APIs enable you to add and manage AWS accounts on Prisma Cloud. For end to end workflow to onboarding an AWS account using APIs, see [Automate AWS Cloud Account Onboarding](/prisma-cloud/docs/cspm/aws-cloud-account-onboarding/). For common operations related to cloud accounts, see [Cloud Accounts (All)](/prisma-cloud/api/cspm/cloud-accounts-all/).

Where this information came from

This is an independent, third-party profile of Palo Alto Networks Cloud Accounts (AWS) API, published by API Evangelist. We do not operate, host, resell, or support these APIs, and we are not affiliated with or endorsed by the company unless stated above. Everything here is built from publicly available information — the company's own site, developer portal, documentation, public repositories, and the specifications it publishes for public use. Nothing is obtained by breaching a system, defeating an access control, or using credentials.

The Kin Score and Agent Readiness rating are independently calculated assessments of a company's public API artifacts, scored against a published rubric. They are not certifications, endorsements, security assessments, or audits.

Corrections, re-scores, and removal are free — no partnership or purchase required, and you do not need to justify the request. A removed company is recorded as unrated, never scored zero for having asked. Acknowledgement within one business day; removal within two.
