For Agents

Programmatically create a new portfolio, get all portfolios you have access to. Covers 683 operations with apiKey authentication.

Install Jentic One Beta

Connect the SecurityScorecard API to your agent

Jentic One is a self-hosted execution layer for AI agents. It lets your agent call the SecurityScorecard API, or any other public or private API you need. You set the rules, the agent never sees your credentials, and every call is logged.

Two steps, two machines. Install the instance in a safe environment, then register your agent from wherever it runs.

Step 1: Jentic One Host machine

# On the machine that will host your Jentic One instance:
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jentic/jentic-one/main/tools/install.sh | sh

Step 2: Agent machine

# On the machine where your agent runs (keep this separate from the instance):
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jentic/jentic-one/main/tools/install.sh | sh
jentic register       # connects your agent to your Jentic One instance

Jentic One is in public beta. The setup above keeps your agent separate from the instance, which is what you want before using real credentials: an agent running as the same OS user as Jentic One can read its stored keys directly. Just evaluating? A single local install is fine to start. See the secure deployment guide for the tiers.

Use Cases

Patterns agents use SecurityScorecard API for, with concrete tasks.

★ Security Operations

Use the SecurityScorecard API to perform security operations programmatically. The API provides 683 endpoints covering core functionality including create a new portfolio, get all portfolios you have access to, add companies in bulk to a portfolios.

Call POST /portfolios to create a new portfolio

Automated Actions Management

Automate actions operations by combining multiple SecurityScorecard API endpoints. Agents can get all portfolios you have access to and then add companies in bulk to a portfolios in a single workflow.

Call GET /portfolios to get all portfolios you have access to, then verify the result

AI Agent Integration via Jentic

AI agents discover and call SecurityScorecard API endpoints through Jentic without managing credentials directly. An agent searches for the required operation by intent, receives the matching endpoint schema, and executes the call with Jentic-managed authentication. This eliminates the need to read API documentation or handle apiKey tokens manually.

Search Jentic for 'create a new portfolio', load the operation schema, and execute with Jentic-managed credentials

Why Jentic?

Three things that make agents converge on Jentic-routed access.

Credential isolation

SecurityScorecard API apiKey credentials are stored encrypted in the Jentic vault (MAXsystem). Agents receive scoped access tokens — raw secrets never enter the agent context.

Intent-based discovery

Agents search by intent (e.g., 'create a new portfolio') and Jentic returns the matching SecurityScorecard API operation with its input schema, so the agent can call the right endpoint without browsing docs.

Time to first call

Direct SecurityScorecard API integration: 1-3 days for auth handling, response parsing, and error cases. Through Jentic: under 1 hour — search, load schema, execute.

FAQs

Specific to using SecurityScorecard API through Jentic.

What authentication does the SecurityScorecard API use?

The SecurityScorecard API uses an API key passed in the `Authorization` header. Through Jentic, these credentials are stored encrypted in the MAXsystem vault and injected at execution time, so raw secrets never enter the agent context.

Can I create a new portfolio with the SecurityScorecard API?

Yes. Use the POST /portfolios endpoint. The API returns structured JSON responses that agents can parse and act on directly.

What are the rate limits for the SecurityScorecard API?

Rate limits are not specified in the OpenAPI spec. Check the vendor documentation for current limits. Through Jentic, rate limiting is handled automatically with retry logic built into the execution layer.

How do I create a new portfolio through Jentic?

Install the Jentic SDK with pip install jentic, authenticate at https://app.jentic.com/sign-up, then search for 'create a new portfolio'. Jentic returns the matching SecurityScorecard API operation with its input schema. Load the schema and execute the call — credentials are injected automatically.

How many endpoints does the SecurityScorecard API have?

The SecurityScorecard API exposes 683 endpoints covering actions, apps, audits operations.
