What is Scout?

Scout finds APIs, enforces customizable API classification, and forwards only relevant data (least privilege principle) to Redocly.

The key benefits of Scout:

• Identifies shadow data.
• Automates API catalog updates.
• Makes compliance a breeze.
• Efficient because it integrates directly with Git source control.
• Shift left to catch problems fast before they are costly.

How does Scout work?

Scout runs as an agent either from Redocly's cloud or inside of your infrastructure.

Why Scout?

The key goal of Scout is to make APIs easier to discover, classify their APIs, in order to help organizations embrace platform-thinking in their API initiatives. Scout reduces time-to-launch an API catalog dramatically by automating data ingestion while enforcing data integrity.
