Connecting to Qualys

After you install and start the toolkit, connect it to your Qualys subscription to begin assessing and replacing scanner appliances.

To connect the toolkit to your Qualys subscription:

1. Open http://localhost:3001 in your browser.
2. On the login screen, enter your Qualys username and password.
3. The Qualys platform (US1, EU1, and so on) is auto-detected from your username where possible. The detected API URL appears in an editable field below the username—you can override it if needed. See Configuration Reference for a list of Qualys platform API URLs.
4. Click Log In.

Your Qualys credentials are held in memory only for the current session. They are never written to disk, logged, or persisted. Closing the browser tab or stopping the container clears the session.

Once connected, see Scanner Inventory Assessment to review your scanner appliances.
