Obtaining the Tenable.io API Access key and Secret key

You must obtain the Tenable.io API Access and Secret keys from Tenable.io before you can add a Tenable.io scanner in IBM® QRadar®. QRadar collects vulnerability information by using the Tenable.io API.

1. Log in to Tenable.io (https://cloud.tenable.com) as Administrator.
2. Click the API Keys tab.
3. Click Generate, and then record the Access key and Secret key values. These keys are used to authenticate with the Tenable.io REST API. You will need these values when you add a Tenable.io scanner in QRadar.
   Note: Existing API keys are replaced. You must update the applications where previous API keys were used.
