Connect with an API token
-
In Probely:
- Sign in to the Snyk API & Web app (formerly Probely).
- Generate an API Key and treat it like a password: what it can access depends on the role associated with the key. Snyk's Help Center article 'How to generate an API Key' has the exact clicks.
Probely's public documentation does not cover every step.
Probely is now Snyk API & Web. Its developer docs say an API key's access depends on the role associated with the key, and the key is sent as 'Authorization: JWT <key>' to https://api.probely.com. The Help Center article with the exact menu path (help.probely.com) returned 403 to automated fetches, so the click path and role names could not be sourced.

Frameworks
Safeguard's automated tests read Probely and map to the controls below. When a test passes, the result is evidence toward each control it maps to, in every framework listed. It is evidence toward a control, not proof that the control is met on its own.
| Framework | Evidence | Controls | Tests |
|---|---|---|---|
| SOC2 | Automated tests | CC7.1 | 4 |
| ISO/IEC 27001 | Automated tests | A.8.8 | 4 |
| HIPAA Security Rule | Automated tests | 164.308(a)(1) | 4 |
| PCI DSS | Automated tests | 6.3.3, 11.3.1 | 4 |
| NIST CSF 2.0 | Automated tests | ID.RA-01, ID.RA-06 | 4 |
These tests are switched on per workspace by the Safeguard team.
