For SSPM to detect posture risks in your YouTrack instance, you must onboard your
YouTrack instance to SSPM. Through the onboarding process, SSPM connects to a
YouTrack API and, through the API, scans your YouTrack instance for misconfigured
settings. If there are misconfigured settings, SSPM suggests a remediation action
based on best practices.
SSPM gets access to your YouTrack instance by connecting to a YouTrack API using an
access token that you generate for your account. During the onboarding process, SSPM
prompts you for the access token and related information.
To onboard your YouTrack instance, you complete the following actions:
Collect Information for Accessing Your YouTrack Instance
Item | Description |

Instance Name | A name that uniquely identifies your organization's YouTrack instance. You specified this name when you created your YouTrack instance, and it appears as a subdomain of your YouTrack URL. |
Permanent Token |
A formatted character string that you generate from an
administrator account. The token is associated with that
account.
Required Permissions: The administrator must be
assigned to the System Admin role, and must configure the
token to the YouTrack and YouTrack
Administration scopes.
