Run the command once in Claude Code; its consent page can create a free sandbox: 100,000 calls a month, no card. In the Claude app, add a custom connector with the URL below and paste your key on the consent page. Creating a new sandbox from the Claude app is not yet tested by us. `https://connect.actionlake.com/mcp` 2. 02 ### Connect Palo Alto Networks Strata Cloud Manager / Prisma Access. OAuth 2.0, client credentials. Paste the app's client id and secret; actionlake fetches and renews the token, and nobody has to sign in. actionlake stores what you paste write-only, sealed under your tenant's key. - `client_id` SASE service account client ID (e.g. name@1234567890.iam.panserviceaccount.com) - `client_secret` Client secret of that service account (shown once at creation) - `tsg_id` Your Palo Alto Networks Strata Cloud Manager / Prisma Access tsg id ``` account { op: "connections.requirements", service: "palo_alto_prisma_access" } # free: exactly what to paste, and what is found for you ``` 3. 03 ### Make the first call. Check before a write. Ask in plain words; Claude picks the action. Before anything changes, `check` validates the call and prices it, for free. ``` do { action: "palo_alto_prisma_access.local_user_groups.list" } # list local user groups · read · 1 upstream call check { action: "palo_alto_prisma_access.security_rules.create", input: { … } } # free: inputs, permissions, cost and confirmations, nothing sent ``` Palo Alto Networks Strata Cloud Manager / Prisma Access at a glance **Sign-in** OAuth 2.0, client credentials.

Questions ## The Palo Alto Networks Strata Cloud Manager / Prisma Access MCP server, answered. **Is there a Palo Alto Networks Strata Cloud Manager / Prisma Access MCP server for Claude?** Yes. actionlake is an MCP gateway: a remote MCP server that gives Claude, or another MCP client, 813 Palo Alto Networks Strata Cloud Manager / Prisma Access actions across network, objects, security and identity, through the same eight tools it uses for every other connector. actionlake is independent; it is not made or endorsed by Palo Alto Networks Strata Cloud Manager / Prisma Access. **What do I need to connect Palo Alto Networks Strata Cloud Manager / Prisma Access?** SASE service account client ID (e.g. name@1234567890.iam.panserviceaccount.com) and Client secret of that service account (shown once at creation). Plus your tsg id. The free call account { op: "connections.requirements", service: "palo_alto_prisma_access" } lists exactly what to paste. **Can an AI agent delete or change things in Palo Alto Networks Strata Cloud Manager / Prisma Access?** Only if its key allows it, and only with an explicit confirmation. 157 Palo Alto Networks Strata Cloud Manager / Prisma Access actions are destructive, including delete a security rule, delete an EDL definition and delete a tag. Each runs only with confirm: true. Under the human confirm policy, or an approval rule on the key, the run waits until a named person approves it. **Will an AI agent use up my Palo Alto Networks Strata Cloud Manager / Prisma Access API limit?** actionlake paces every call to the limits in the Palo Alto Networks Strata Cloud Manager / Prisma Access service file: 10 calls a second per connection. Repeated reads are answered from cache (326 Palo Alto Networks Strata Cloud Manager / Prisma Access actions can be), which never reaches Palo Alto Networks Strata Cloud Manager / Prisma Access. **What does a Palo Alto Networks Strata Cloud Manager / Prisma Access action cost?** One upstream call, the only unit actionlake bills. A list that pages bills one call per page (813 Palo Alto Networks Strata Cloud Manager / Prisma Access actions page). Cache hits, searches, dry runs and calls Palo Alto Networks Strata Cloud Manager / Prisma Access refused with 401, 403, 429 or a 5xx are free. The Free plan includes 100,000 calls a month with no card. Paid plans start at US$49 a month for 250,000 calls, with overage from US$0.30 down to US$0.18 per 1,000. **Which Palo Alto Networks Strata Cloud Manager / Prisma Access API does it cover?** The Strata Cloud Manager configuration API v1 (pan.dev openapi-specs/scm/config/sase, R3) at api.strata.paloaltonetworks.com. It is built from Palo Alto Networks Strata Cloud Manager / Prisma Access's documentation as read on 23 October 2026. 813 actions in 10 areas, each one in the signed service file (version 1.0.0). **Does actionlake keep my Palo Alto Networks Strata Cloud Manager / Prisma Access data, and where?** actionlake processes and stores data in Sydney, Australia; there is no US region yet. Reads may be cached for up to 5 minutes, and a write clears the reads it affects. Each run's request and response is kept, sealed, for your plan's trace window: 1 day on Free, 3 days on Starter, 7 days on Pro, 14 days on Team, 30 days on Business and 30 days on Enterprise. Your Palo Alto Networks Strata Cloud Manager / Prisma Access credential is sealed under your tenant's key, never logged and never returned. Your traffic is not used to train models. **Which AI clients can use it?** Claude Code, tested by us end to end, and the Claude app as a custom connector, tested by us with an existing key. Other MCP clients that support remote servers over Streamable HTTP (MCP revisions 2025-06-18 and 2025-11-25) and OAuth dynamic client registration, or a bearer header, should connect the same way; we have not tested them. Or plain REST, under the same action names. ## More connectors like Palo Alto Networks Strata Cloud Manager / Prisma Access Shares the most action names with - [VMware Carbon Black Cloud 6](https://actionlake.com/connectors/vmware-carbon-black-cloud) - [Cloudflare 5](https://actionlake.com/connectors/cloudflare) - [ProjectDiscovery Cloud 5](https://actionlake.com/connectors/projectdiscovery-cloud) - [Palo Alto Networks Cortex XDR 5](https://actionlake.com/connectors/palo-alto-networks-cortex-xdr) - [Socket 5](https://actionlake.com/connectors/socket) - [Rubrik Security Cloud 2](https://actionlake.com/connectors/rubrik-security-cloud) Joins with, on shared entities - [Fortinet FortiGate 3](https://actionlake.com/connectors/fortinet-fortigate) - [Azure Networking 2](https://actionlake.com/connectors/azure-networking) - [Sophos Central 2](https://actionlake.com/connectors/sophos-central) - [SonicWall SonicOS 2](https://actionlake.com/connectors/sonicwall-sonicos) - [DNSFilter 2](https://actionlake.com/connectors/dnsfilter) - [Cisco Umbrella 2](https://actionlake.com/connectors/cisco-umbrella) Browse - [All Identity & security connectors](https://actionlake.com/connectors/category/identity-and-security) - [All connectors](https://actionlake.com/connectors) - [How actionlake compares](https://actionlake.com/compare) actionlake is independent.
