HTTP APIs

NAKIVO Backup & Replication provides a simple HTTP API that enables you to automate and orchestrate VM backup, replication, and recovery tasks. The API offers full coverage of the product features, allowing you to perform all actions that are available through the product’s web interface.

The API makes it easy to integrate NAKIVO Backup & Replication with monitoring, automation, and orchestration solutions, helping reduce the time spent on backup management and lower data protection costs. To accelerate integration, the API is delivered as part of an Integration Kit that includes comprehensive API documentation and code examples.

By using the API, you can achieve the following:

• Save time on backup administration by automating data protection workflows from VM provisioning through VM decommissioning.

• Ensure uninterrupted backup operations by monitoring the health status of NAKIVO Backup & Replication components.

• Prevent failed jobs and out-of-space conditions by monitoring Backup Repositories.

• Reduce storage consumption by automating backup decommissioning.

• Improve compliance by automating data protection reporting.

• Align data protection with business processes by triggering VM backup and replication jobs from orchestration and automation tools.

• Increase recovery speed by automating recovery workflows.
