Proofpoint API fundamentals: HTTP Basic Auth with service principal and secret, base URLs and versioning across TAP SIEM, People, Quarantine, Forensics, and URL Defense APIs, rate limits, pagination patterns, and error handling.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Proofpoint API Patterns

## Overview

The Proofpoint APIs provide programmatic access to email security data including threat events, quarantine management, people risk analytics, and URL defense. This skill covers authentication, base URLs, rate limiting, pagination, error handling, and best practices for API integration.

Proofpoint operates multiple API endpoints, each serving a different product area. All APIs share the same authentication mechanism but have different base URLs and rate limits.

## Authentication

### HTTP Basic Auth

All Proofpoint APIs use HTTP Basic Authentication with a service principal and secret:

```http
GET /v2/siem/all?sinceSeconds=3600
Host: tap-api.proofpoint.com
Authorization: Basic <base64(service_principal:service_secret)>
Content-Type: application/json
```

**Constructing the Authorization Header:**

```javascript
const credentials = Buffer.from(`${servicePrincipal}:${serviceSecret}`).toString('base64');
const headers = {
  'Authorization': `Basic ${credentials}`,
  'Content-Type': 'application/json'
};
```

```bash
# Using curl
curl -u "SERVICE_PRINCIPAL:SERVICE_SECRET" \
  "https://tap-api.proofpoint.com/v2/siem/all?sinceSeconds=3600"
```
…

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add wyre-ai/msp-claude-plugins/Proofpoint API Patterns@sha256:fed32dea981824b6

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260728.b7e78fc, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
