How our APIs Help You
Out-of-the-Box Connectors
Leverage a comprehensive suite of ready-to-use connectors that provide seamless integrations between MetricStream and external systems and service providers within minutes. Easily link a variety of systems with MetricStream with zero coding effort for a variety of uses ranging from asset databases (CMDBs), regulatory compliance feed providers, threat & vulnerability scanners, ticketing systems, third-party monitoring systems, crisis communications systems, and more.
Rapidly Build Your Own Connectors
Create your own connectors with any third-party system by leveraging Connected GRC Insights capabilities. Easily integrate with any modern third-party system that supports standard REST connectors or Kafka-based connectors. Bridge the inbound data, transform/map, and then use 200+ built-in GRC APIs to populate and store data to respective entities. All the data gets stored in the central GRC libraries and mapped to relevant entities that can be used across products, reports, etc. Exceptions related to connections and data issues can be easily accessed through log reports. Connectors can be configured to run based on pre-defined schedules or on-demand.
GRC APIs
Effectively handle requests that originate from external systems coming into MetricStream with robust inbound integration capabilities of MetricStream GRC APIs. Leverage the in-built scheduler to systematically process bulk requests. The MetricStream Platform allows for bi-directional data exchanges with appropriate security and authentication wrappers and provides industry standard OpenAPI compliant REST APIs.
Content Integration Service
Leverage outbound integration capabilities to easily connect with external data sources and systems over REST with MetricStream Content Integration Service. You can either leverage pre-configured connectors or develop new connectors. Integrate risk, compliance, audit, security, policy, ESG, and third-party-related content from a variety of reliable and authoritative content providers and information sources. You can periodically pull information and bring that data into the MetricStream application for subsequent evaluation of evidence and analytics.
