  description: >-
    The Illumio PCE REST API authenticates with an organization-scoped API key
    presented via HTTP Basic authentication: the API key ID (or a username) is
    the Basic-auth username and the API key secret (or password) is the
    Basic-auth password. API keys are created per user in the PCE and are scoped
    to an organization (org_id). Session tokens are also available for
    short-lived, browser-derived access.
  sources: [docs]
notes:
- API requests are made against the customer/tenant PCE FQDN at the /api/v2 base path over HTTPS.
- Requests are org-scoped; most collection/instance URIs embed /orgs/{org_id}/.
- The official illumio Python client sets credentials via pce.set_credentials(api_key, api_secret).
