Connect with an API token

  1. In folk:

    1. In folk, open the Settings menu in the sidebar and go to the API section (workspace settings).
    2. Create a new API key.
    3. Copy the API key and paste it into Safeguard's API key field.

    folk documents no scope or read-only option for API keys, and does not state the button labels for creating a key, whether the key is shown only once, or which role is needed. Keys are viewed and managed in the workspace settings under the API section.

Frameworks

Safeguard's automated tests read folk 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.
