Learn about the NetApp Console REST APIs

Contributors netapp-aoife

The NetApp Console provides centralized management of NetApp storage and data services across on-premises and cloud environments at enterprise grade. It delivers real-time insights, faster workflows, and simplified administration that is highly secure and compliant.

The Console is composed of several distinct services, each of which exposes an associated REST API. Collectively these services and APIs form a flexible and extensible development platform you can use to administer your cloud-based and on-premises resources. There are several benefits when using the Console REST APIs.

Built on REST technology and design principles

The Console APIs have been designed based on REST technology and current best practices. The core technologies include HTTP and JSON.

Rich set of platform services

The APIs provide access to a rich set of services including storage, cloud, and security. Applications based on the Console platform are robust, resilient, and supportable.

Access to NetApp console token-based security

The Console authentication and authorization is based on the OAuth2 standard. NetApp relies on the Auth0 service implementation.

Alignment with the Console web UI

The Console web UI uses the same core REST APIs and so there is consistency between the two access paths.
