Managed WordPress, application and database hosting on Google Cloud with the MyKinsta dashboard

Kinsta opens bot protection and bot traffic analytics to its API.

wordpress-hostingapiagency-toolsbot-protectionsecurity
◆Current state
Kinsta added 13 API endpoints to configure Bot Protection and pull bot traffic analytics, two weeks after company user and permission management joined the API. MyKinsta has also gained enhanced Vulnerability Protection, environment suspension and more bulk add-on actions this autumn.
◆Where it's heading
Nearly every MyKinsta feature is getting an API counterpart, from domains and backups in July to users and now bot protection. That serves agencies that script many client sites and want security settings in their own tooling.
◆Prediction
The next API additions will likely cover the newer security features, such as Vulnerability Protection or environment suspension, which still appear only in MyKinsta.

    Thirteen new endpoints let customers configure Bot Protection and read bot traffic analytics through the API. It brings a July dashboard feature into the API, the same parity push as the user and permission endpoints in October.

    Manage company users and permissions with the Kinsta API

    User and permission management joins the API, so agencies can script who can access which client sites. It is the next API-parity step after this summer's domain, backup and analytics endpoints.

    Make a site “disappear” with environment suspension

    Environment suspension adds an emergency off-switch for a site, for example during a compromise or a legal takedown. It fits the summer's focus on incident tooling next to disaster recovery and bot protection.

    Multiple-site management bulks up in MyKinsta

    Four more add-ons join the MyKinsta bulk actions menu, so changes can be applied across many sites at once. This continues the shift toward agency-scale fleet management.

    It’s easier to get started with Kinsta Disaster Recovery

    Requesting, cancelling and managing disaster recovery is now simpler for dedicated-server customers. Three weeks after launch, Kinsta is reducing friction on the August product rather than widening its scope.
