Integrations and File Imports

One key aspect of PlexTrac is the ability to connect with various security assessment tools, templates, and applications. These connection points allow for importing of findings, assets, and other vulnerability data from popular tools. This eliminates the need for manual data entry, reducing human error and saving time.
Below is a list of third-party tools, templates, and API integrations, along with instructions and field mappings, that users can leverage to import data into PlexTrac.
Configuration and setup of parsers, third-party tools, and APIs are done in the Tools & Integrations section of the Admin Dashboard.

APIs

An API (Application Programming Interface) is a set of rules, protocols, and tools that allow different software applications to communicate and interact with each other. It provides a standardized way for developers to access and manipulate the functionalities and data of a particular system or service.
PlexTrac offers several integrations, some of which are available for immediate use, while others may require a license. These APIs enable seamless communication between PlexTrac and external systems or applications, facilitating data exchange, automation, and extended functionality.
Visit the PlexTrac API section for information about leveraging the PlexTrac API
Additional information for each integration can be accessed by clicking the logo within a card.

File Imports

PlexTrac provides the ability to import data from a wide range of security assessment tools and CSV templates, making it easier for teams to aggregate and centralize their assessment findings, test results, and vulnerability data within the platform.
With PlexTrac's integration capabilities, it supports data ingestion from over 25 tools commonly used in the security industry. These parsers are built into the platform and are readily available to users without additional licensing requirements. The parsers extract the relevant information from the imported data and convert it into a unified format within PlexTrac, allowing for consistent representation, analysis, and reporting.
Parser actions are configured at the admin level on the Admin Dashboard.

Third-Party Tools

When available, additional information (field mappings and instructions) can be accessed by clicking the field mappings or instructions buttons or logo within a card.

PlexTrac CSV Templats

PlexTrac offers a variety of CSV (Comma-Separated Values) templates. These templates serve as predefined structures that allow users to organize and format their data in a way that can be easily imported into PlexTrac.
CSV files are widely used because they are lightweight, easy to generate and parse, and can be opened with a simple text editor. The structure of a CSV file is straightforward. Each line in the file represents a row of data and a delimiter, typically a comma, which separates the values within each row.
Finding Imports: Visit the CSV Findings page for more information and guidance on which CSV template to use when importing findings.
Additional information (field mappings and instructions) can be accessed by clicking the CSV icon within a card.
