Akamai

Firefly integrates with Akamai to pull in information like configurations, properties, and edge hostnames as "assets". This means in your Firefly Inventory, you'll see Akamai resources listed (with their configurations) just like cloud assets. You can then enforce IaC or policies on them as well (for example, ensuring all Akamai properties follow a naming convention).

Prerequisites

• An Akamai API client with appropriate credentials (Client Secret, Access Token, Client Token).

• The Host value for your Akamai API (usually found in your .edgrc file or Akamai Control Center).

• Ensure the API client has read permissions on Akamai resources.

• Access to Akamai Control Center to create API clients.

Setup Procedure

1. In Firefly, click Settings > Integrations and then Add New > Akamai.

2. In Akamai Control Center, create a new API client with read permissions.

3. Copy the following credentials from your Akamai Control Center into Firefly's integration form:

   • Nickname: A name to identify this integration (e.g., "Akamai").

   • Client Secret: Your Akamai API client secret.

   • Host: The Akamai API host (e.g., akab-xxxx.luna.akamaiapis.net).

   • Access Token: Your Akamai API access token.

   • Client Token: Your Akamai API client token.

4. Click Next.

5. Click Done.

Creating API Credentials

1. Navigate to Akamai Control Center here.

2. Go to Identity & Access Management section.

4. Save the client token, client secret, and access token.
