Abstract
The disclosed technology teaches keeping up with the deployment of APIs, so that Secure Access Service Edge (SASE) protection is afforded, parsing an OpenAPI specification for an API family, for identifying overall attributes of the API family. The method includes identifying resources with respective URIs within the API family and extracting usable attributes of the API resources, useful for building a connector, extracting per-activity attributes that correspond to core activities that trigger protective actions. The disclosed technology also includes applying a connector creator that performs actions including accessing a template for creating connector rules that recognize intercepted API calls and activities requested by the API calls, and that trigger the protective actions, using the template and the extracted attributes from the API resources, producing the connector rules, and storing the connector rules for use in processing intercepted APIs. Further taught is using the connector rules for the SASE protection.
