To input TIDE feeds into an AWS Route 53 DNS Firewall, you must first acquire a TIDE API key from the Infoblox CSP. As mentioned in the prerequisites, a BloxOne Threat Defense Advanced license is required for TIDE feeds. In order to acquire a TIDE API key, perform the following steps:
Log into the Infoblox CSP. Once logged in, highlight your username located in the bottom left of the navigation panel, then click on User Profile in the list that is revealed.
On the User Profile page, click the User API Keys tab located at the top of the page.
Click the Create button to begin creating an API key.
On the Create Service API Key panel that is revealed. Give the API Key a Name.
(Optional) Change the API Keys expiration date by changing the Expires at field.
Click Save & Close to confirm the creation of the API key.
After clicking Save & Close, a dialog box will appear. Copy the API key from this dialog box and save it to a text file for use later. Please note that once you close this dialog box, the API key will no longer be accessible.
