Notice

This guide is for the original release of AQtive Guard. For the current AQG SaaS platform, go to the AQtive Guard User Guide.

API Client installation

Requirements

  • Linux 64-bit: libcurl4
  • Windows 64-bit: libcurl4

Installation

The API Client can be downloaded from GitHub and is distributed as a tar file named cs-api-<VERSION>.tar.gz.

When you extract this file, it’ll create a directory named cs-api-<VERSION> that contains the following files:

  • cs-api.exe - Executable for running the API client.
  • libcurl-4.dll - required Windows version of the libcurl library.
  • curl-ca-bundle.crt - CA certificates provided for convenience. To be used with --ca-file curl-ca-bundle.crt, unless you have a more specific CA file to use (e.g. with your server certificate). A limitation on Windows prevents cs-api from accepting any certificate without --ca-file.

Tip

You can move the cs-api file anywhere on your system. It doesn’t have to remain in the cs-api-<VERSION> directory.
