## A**bout This Document**

This guide details the steps necessary to connect Cisco Meraki to the Epiphany Intelligence Platform. The Epiphany Intelligence Platform leverages data from tools like Meraki to provide greater visibility into the network exposures in your environment.

## **Overview**

Meraki allows API access by virtue of an API key, which can be created in the Meraki management console by an individual user. The permissions granted to the API key will be limited to those of the user associated to that key.

The Epiphany Intelligence Platform only requires the **Read-Only** rights to the Meraki Dashboard, which is a default role within the system when adding a new user.

There are two options to accomplish this; either is acceptable:

* **Option 1 - New user**: Create a new user, who would be designated for use by Epiphany, and generate an API key
* **Option 2 - Existing user**: Leverage an existing user and follow the steps to generate an API key

## **Version Compatibility**

* **Epiphany Site Collector:** Version 1.0 and later.
* **Cisco Meraki API:** Meraki REST v1 and later.

## **Prerequisities**

* [ ] Access to the Meraki Dashboard UI.
* [ ] Ability to create a user, or access to an existing user with the Read-only role.

## **What is Needed for Integration**

* [ ] The API key.
* [ ] The SVG maps generated by the Meraki Dashboard.
