Which two actions can a company with Prisma Access deployed take to use the Egress IP API to automate policy rule updates when the IP addresses used by Prisma Access change? (Choose two.)
A.
Configure a webhook to receive notifications of IP address changes.
B.
Copy the Egress IP API Key in the service infrastructure settings.
C.
Enable the Egress IP API endpoint in Prisma Access.
D.
Download a client certificate to authenticate to the Egress IP API.
Prisma Access egress and public IP addresses can change as a result of autoscaling or infrastructure upgrades, so any allow-list dependent on those addresses (SaaS tenant restrictions, partner firewalls, third-party services) needs a reliable way to stay current. Palo Alto Networks addresses this with two complementary mechanisms. First, an Egress IP Notification URL — the webhook referenced in option A — can be configured under Infrastructure Settings so that Prisma Access sends an HTTP POST a few seconds before a new IP address becomes active, giving downstream automation advance warning to update firewall or SaaS allow-lists before the change takes effect. Second, retrieving the actual address list requires authenticating to the Egress/Public IP retrieval API using an API key that is generated and copied from the service infrastructure settings, as described in option B; this key is passed in the request header when calling the retrieval endpoint. There is no separate " enable the Egress IP API endpoint " toggle, since the retrieval API is available by default once a key is generated — making option C incorrect. Authentication to this API is strictly key-based, not certificate-based, so downloading a client certificate (option D) is not a supported or required step. Together, the webhook and API key form the complete automation loop: notify, then retrieve and apply.
