What can you do with Identity Services Engine APIs?
External RESTful Services (ERS) APIs
The External RESTful Services (ERS) are designed to allow external clients to perform CRUD (Create, Read, Update, Delete) operations on ISE resources. ERS is based on the HTTP protocol and REST methodology. The ERS APIs manage resources such as users, endpoints, network devices, portals, identity stores, scalable group, and many more elements!

Monitoring REST APIs
The Monitoring REST API allows you to locate, monitor, and accumulate important real-time, session-based information about individual endpoints in a network from ISE Monitoring nodes. There are three different types of Monitoring APIs that you may invoke: Session Management , Troubleshooting , and Change of Authorization.

Platform Exchange Grid (pxGrid)
The Cisco Platform Exchange Grid (pxGrid) primarily offers a PubSub messaging system, with STOMP as the messaging protocol, for ISE and other security applications to share relevant topics of information. But pxGrid also offers REST APIs to make queries about information in these topics also for things like sessions, users, profiles, system health, SGTs, SGACLs, and RADIUS failures.

Data Connect
The Data Connect feature provides database access to Cisco ISE using Open Database Connectivity (ODBC) or JAVA Database Connectivity (JDBC) driver, so that you can directly query the database server to generate reports of your choice. Only read-only access to the data is provided.
