Abstract
Embodiments describe receiving a user input identifying a name associated with the website. A directory server receives a request for application programming interface (API) fingerprint data associated with the name. In response to receiving, from the directory server, a response indicating that no API fingerprint data has been found for the name, a secured connection is initiated via the wireless transceiver from a headless browser of the native application to the remote server. First web page data of the website is received from the remote server via the secured connection and the first web page data parsed to identify first locations of one or more elements of the website. A first application programming interface (API) fingerprint data is generated indicating a mapping between the one or more elements of the website and the native application and the first API fingerprint data is sent to the directory server.
