=== Protection API
The Protection API provides a UMA-compliant set of endpoints providing:
* *Resource Registration*
+
With this endpoint, resource servers can manage their resources remotely and enable <<_enforcer_overview, policy enforcers>> to query the server for the resources that need protection.
* *Permission Registration*
+
In the UMA protocol, resource servers access this endpoint, which issues permission tickets.
An important requirement for this API is that _only_ resource servers are allowed to access its endpoints using a special OAuth2 access token called a protection API token (PAT).
In UMA, a PAT is a token with the scope *uma_protection*.
