Set up Huntress
You need an Admin user in the Huntress portal.1
Choose the user
The credential has exactly the permissions of its user, so choose an account-level Admin for every action. A Read-only user covers most reads (escalations need Admin or Security Engineer, invoices Admin or Finance). See Write actions and roles and Huntress’s user permissions.
2
Create a user API credential
Open the menu in the top right and select API Credentials. Under User API Credentials, click Add, select the user, enter a Key Name such as
Triggr and click Add.3
Copy the key and secret
Copy the API Key and Secret, then click Ok. Huntress shows the secret only once.
Connect it in Triggr

Open the integration
Go to Integrations > Huntress and click Configure on the Base Configuration card.

2
Enter the key and secret
Enter the API Key as Public Key and the Secret as Private Key, then click Save Configuration.

Write actions and roles
Reseller actions (Accounts, Reseller Invoices, Reseller Subscriptions and actions that take an account ID) need reseller-level credentials. Delete an Organization and Permanently Disable an Account can’t be undone. For endpoints without a built-in action, use a Generic Integration Action step; see the Huntress API reference.
