Overview
Assets are the top-level containers for the APIs you want to manage in ApyGuard. They help you separate environments, organize ownership, and keep scanning and findings tied to the right API surface.Environment boundary
Represent development, staging, or production APIs as separate assets when their behavior or access controls differ.
Security context
Keep authentication settings, scan configuration, and findings associated with the correct API environment.
Team visibility
Help engineering and security teams understand which API belongs to which product or environment.
Workflow anchor
Use the asset as the starting point for importing collections, configuring authentication, and launching scans.
What an asset typically includes
- Asset name
- Environment
- Description
- Linked API collections
- Authentication and credential context
- Scan history and findings
Best practices
- Create separate assets when environments behave differently
- Use clear names such as
Payments API - Staging - Keep asset descriptions specific to the service and owner
- Review assets after major API or environment changes
Next steps
API Collections
Import and organize the API definitions associated with an asset.
Authorization Settings
Configure access methods for protected endpoints under the asset.
