Authorization

When you add a Trend Micro card to a flow for the first time, Okta Workflows prompts you to configure the connection. This connection links to your Trend Micro Vision One account and saves your account information, so you can reuse this connection for future Trend Micro flows.

Before you begin

To create a Trend Micro connection, you need a Trend Micro Vision One account with a Global Admin role and an API key with a predefined or custom role with the following permissions:

  • User Accounts

    • Configure account settings

    • View

  • User Roles

    View

  • API Keys

    • Configure settings

    • View

Create a custom role

  1. Sign in to the Trend Micro Vision One console with an admin account.
