Abstract
A system, method, and computer-readable medium for performing a data center monitoring and management operation. The data center monitoring and management operation includes: generating a request for a client identifier or an access token for access to a target application programming interface (API); obtaining an access policy associated with the target API; determining a least privileged API access permission based upon the access policy associated with the target API; and, using the client identifier or access token to access the target API when the least privileged API access permission allows access to the target API.
