App Discovery Paths and Data Storage Regions

Secure Access supports latency-based routing of the Secure Access App Discovery API requests. Depending on where you send an API request, you must use a certain App Discovery base URI to access your App Discovery logs.

Choose the App Discovery API base URI that matches your location and the region where Secure Access stores your App Discovery logs.

  • https://api.sse.cisco.com/reports/v2—Secure Access stores your App Discovery logs in the same region as the location where you connect to the App Discovery API.
  • https://api.sse.cisco.com/reports.eu/v2—Secure Access stores your App Discovery logs in a Cisco data center that is located in Europe. However, you can connect to the API from a region outside of Europe.
  • https://api.sse.cisco.com/reports.us/v2—Secure Access stores your App Discovery logs in a Cisco data center that is located in North America. However, you can connect to the API from a region outside of North America.
