NetMon API Key

As of the NetMon 5.0.4 release (06 January 2026), NetMon API documentation has been relocated to the LogRhythm API Developer Portal.

This page will no longer be updated after that date.

The API token is an authentication mechanism that allows you to query NetMon remotely. With this token, you can query NetMon through remediation scripts and pull NetMon data into your own user interface. The Search interface is an Elasticsearch API, so you can use third-party Elasticsearch clients, providing they support HTTPS and bearer token authentication.

To use the API token:

1. Open the NetMon Web Management interface.

2. On the top navigation bar, click Configuration, and then click the User tab.
   The API Token panel appears at the top of the page.

3. Click on New API Token for generating the new bearer token

4. Copy the API Token from the field and paste it into your script or application.

Each time you click New API Token, NetMon generates a new API Token, invalidating the previous token and disabling access from any applications that are using it.

The API token is inaccessible once you navigate away from this page, so be sure to store it in a secure location.
