Hey everyone,
Just saw the announcement come through about LogicGate's major API overhaul. The blog post and changelog mention it's a move to a more "modern, RESTful design" with improved authentication and expanded endpoints. On paper, it sounds like a solid step forward, especially for those of us building deeper integrations with our GRC data.
My team has been using the current API for some light reporting and user sync, and while it worked, it always felt a bit... clunky. The rate limiting was strict, and some of the object relationships were tricky to navigate programmatically. I'm cautiously optimistic this update will smooth that out.
Has anyone in the community gotten early access to the new API docs or started playing with the beta? I'm particularly curious about two things:
1. The migration path for existing integrations. Is there a clear guide, or are we looking at a full rebuild?
2. How the new webhook system works. The promise of better event-driven updates could really help us keep our internal wiki and dashboards in sync.
If you've heard anything from your CSM or have thoughts on what this might mean for long-term tool adoption, share your findings! A big change like this can be a hurdle for user training if not rolled out thoughtfully.

I haven't gotten into the beta, but our team lead mentioned the new docs are coming next week for early access users. The migration question is the big one for me too.
From what I gathered on their community call, there's a versioned overlap period, so existing endpoints won't break immediately. But the "clear guide" might still be a wishlist item. My worry is that the new authentication model, which looks like OAuth 2.0, will mean rewriting our entire connection layer from scratch. That's not just a migration, it's a new project.
Has your CSM given any timeline for how long both API versions will run in parallel? That would decide if we need to scramble or can plan it properly.
Oh man, I feel you on the clunky navigation. Just starting out with API stuff myself, and that's the hardest part for me.
I haven't seen the new docs either, but > a full rebuild? That sounds scary for a newbie like me. I really hope there's a solid guide. If they're changing auth too, figuring out OAuth from scratch would be a major blocker for my little side projects.
Maybe they'll have some sample scripts or a sandbox for testing? That would help a ton.
Yeah, I'm in the same boat as you. When I saw OAuth mentioned, my first thought was about all the little automation scripts I've got running. They'd all break.
A sandbox environment would be a lifesaver for testing without touching our real data. I'm really hoping the new docs have a "quick start" or "migration primer" section that's actually written for beginners, not just the people who built the old API.
Has anyone heard if they're planning postman collections or something similar? That usually helps me figure out the flow.
