Shodan connector for Okou

Connect your Shodan account to search Internet-facing devices, inspect hosts, resolve DNS, and manage network monitoring alerts.

Data & infrastructure · API Key

Use Shodan in Okou

Use the Shodan REST API to search Internet-facing devices, inspect hosts and services, resolve DNS, manage network alerts and notifiers, and request on-demand scans.

Once connected, supported Shodan actions can become steps in a reusable workflow alongside the other services your team uses. Run the workflow once, on a schedule, or when an event starts it.

What you can do with Shodan

  • Read the Shodan account profile associated with the API key.
  • Read API plan, credit, and usage-limit information.
  • List available bulk datasets and their files.
  • Search and list the directory of saved Shodan queries and tags.
  • Resolve hostnames, reverse-resolve IP addresses, and read DNS domain information.
  • Read host information, host counts, search facets, filters, and search tokens without consuming query credits.
  • List network alerts, read alert details, and list available alert triggers.
  • List configured notifiers and supported notifier providers.
