# Integrating SailPoint with Panther

Panther is a cloud-native security operations platform that helps organizations detect threats, investigate alerts, and manage security data across cloud and on-premises environments. The Panther connector is a read-only integration that enables SailPoint to aggregate Panther user accounts and role entitlements for identity governance and quick compliance use cases. This document provides instructions to configure a new direct connection to a Panther source. For a reference to the terminology specific to SailPoint products, refer to [Source and Connector Definitions](<https://documentation.sailpoint.com/saas/help/sources/index.html#source-and-connector-definitions>).

## Supported Features

The Panther connector supports the following:

### Account Management

- Aggregate Users

### Entitlement Management

- Aggregate Roles

> [!IMPORTANT]
>
> Quick Compliance connectors have the following manual aggregation limits within a 24-hour period:
>
> - **Organization Admins**: Limited to 3 manual account or entitlement aggregations per day per source. This limit is cumulative across all admins in the organization.
> - **Regular Users**: Limited to 1 manual account or entitlement aggregation per day per source.
>
> These limits ensure that individual compliance statuses are kept up to date while maintaining continuous compliance monitoring. If you need to run additional aggregations beyond these limits, contact SailPoint Support.

## Prerequisites

Ensure the following prerequisites are met before proceeding with the configuration. The Panther connector uses API key - based authentication.

- **Panther administrative access:** Ensure you have a Panther user with sufficient privileges to access **Settings \> Developer Tools \> API Tokens** to create and manage API tokens. Users with the `Admin` role or the **Manage API Tokens** permission can create API tokens in the Panther Console.
- **Panther REST API base URL:** Identify your Panther REST API URL from **Settings \> Developer Tools \> API Tokens** in the Panther Console.
- For more information about how to create and manage API Key and Application Key, refer to [Panther API - How to create a Panther API token](<https://docs.panther.com/panther-developer-workflows/api>).
