This guide walks you through creating a CrowdStrike Falcon API client for use with Synqly's Vulnerabilities Connector.

## Configure a new API client for Integration

### 1. Log in to CrowdStrike Falcon UI as an administrator

Once logged in as an administrator, you'll have the option to create an API client, provided your account already has the **Falcon Administrator** role assigned. If you need to create a separate user to manage API clients, you can do so by creating a new user and assigning them the **Falcon Administrator** role. Note: for adding a user, you need to navigate to **Host setup and management** > **Falcon users** > **User management**.

### 2. Create an API client and keys for service integration

For integrating with Synqly, you need to create one API client, which includes the associated Client ID, Secret, and Base URL.

- Navigate to **Support and resource** > **Resources and tools** > **API client and keys**.
- In the modal dialog to create the API client, provide **Client name** and **Description**.
- In the same modal dialog, for the scopes section, grant the scopes listed in [Required Scopes](#required-scopes) below.
- Click **Create** on the modal dialog to create the new API client.
- Another modal dialog shows up, from which you can copy the **Client ID**, **Secret**, and **Base URL**.


### Required Scopes

| Scope | Access | Required for |
|  --- | --- | --- |
| **Hosts** | Read | Querying host information associated with vulnerabilities |
| **Vulnerabilities** | Read | Querying vulnerability findings |
