Huntress API Update: New Endpoints, Webhooks, and Automation

When we launched the Huntress API in 2022, the goal was straightforward: give partners a way to pull their Huntress data without logging into the portal. But at the time, the API was limited to six read-only endpoints, so there were a lot of limitations. A lot has changed since then.

Over the past year, we've not only rolled out Webhooks and an MCP server, but we've also expanded the Huntress API from a read-only data access tool into a full integration and automation platform. One that lets you not just read your Huntress data, but manage it and build real workflows around it. Here's what's new, and what it means for you, starting with an overview video:

The biggest shift in the past year is simple: the API can now write, not just read. That single change unlocked a category of automation that wasn't possible before. A few examples: 

Manage Agents programmatically. The new Agents write API lets you uninstall agents, update tags, toggle tamper protection, and isolate or release hosts directly from your scripts or RMM. No portal login required. If you're managing hundreds or thousands of endpoints, the ability to automate agent lifecycle tasks through your own tooling is a significant time saver.

Automate organization and account onboarding. The Organization write API lets partners create, update, and delete organizations programmatically. For resellers/distributors, the Reseller API also supports account create, update, and delete requests. A practical use case is RMM-driven onboarding: when a new client is created in your RMM, automation can create the corresponding Huntress organization and kick off EDR deployment.

Manage access without touching the portal. The User Management API lets you list, invite, update, and remove the people who have access to your Huntress accounts and organizations (what we call "memberships"). If you're adding or removing staff access across multiple accounts, this is now something you can automate rather than click through.
