Tutorial: Pulling Reports using the XML API

Exporting reports from a Palo Alto Networks firewall is easy from the WebUI but what if you want to retrieve a report using a script or a 3rd party tool? You can do just that thanks to the rich REST-based XML API in PAN-OS. In this video, Jason shows you how to enable access to the XML API and then retrieve reports using the API browser, curl.exe and a 3rd party REST client.
