Migrating Destinations Lists from Cisco Umbrella to Atmos

If you're currently using Cisco Umbrella to manage your destination lists and would like to migrate them to Atmos, you can easily do so using a CMD tool created for this purpose. This tool automates the process of importing and configuring your destination lists from Cisco Umbrella into Web Categories in Atmos, saving you time and effort. The tool ensures that the migration is performed accurately, reducing the risk of errors.

This tool is straightforward to use and requires only a few steps to complete the migration process:

Step 1: Download the Destination Lists from Cisco Umbrella

2. Log in to the Cisco Umbrella and go to Policies > Policy Components > Destination Lists
3. Expand every destination list you wish to migrate to Atmos and click Download to save it to your hard drive. Next, move the file into the domain lists directory you created.

Step 2: Create Atmos API token and API Configuration File

1. Open the management console and navigate to Settings > Admin API.
2. Click on the New API Token button. Make sure to grant Read and Write permissions, and select the Web Categories scope. Click on Submit.
3. Once the token is created, you will receive an API Access Token and a Base URI.

{
   "apiToken": “YOUR API TOKEN”,
   "baseURI": "YOUR BASE URI"
}
