Integrations
Connecting AegisOne to other systems
How to think about integration, and where the API is the right answer instead.
Last updated
AegisOne sits in the middle of a toolchain rather than replacing it. Directory services, ticketing, finance and monitoring all have systems either side of it, and the integration question is usually about which direction data should flow rather than whether it should.
Check the integrations page for current status before planning against any specific connector. Integration status is tracked and labelled honestly — available, beta, coming soon or planned — and building a process on something that is not yet available is a predictable way to be disappointed on a deadline.
Where a packaged integration does not exist, the REST API generally does the job. Most integration needs in practice are one of three shapes: pull endpoint or asset data into a system of record, push a finding into a ticketing system, or feed operational data into something that already does alerting for you. All three are straightforward against the API and none of them require the platform to know anything about the other system.
That last shape deserves emphasis because it is the practical answer to a real gap. AegisOne has no alerting or escalation engine. If you need paging, poll the API from your existing monitoring or alerting platform and evaluate conditions there. This is not a workaround so much as the arrangement most mature teams prefer anyway — on-call routing, suppression, escalation policy and rota live in one place rather than being duplicated per tool.
When you build an integration, poll at a sensible interval and handle failure quietly. An integration that retries aggressively against a slow response is a self-inflicted incident, and integrations tend to be written once and then run untouched for years.
