# Scenarios for using the Snyk API The Snyk API scenarios identify procedures you can use to accomplish tasks with Snyk applications using the API. The scenarios listed on this page are grouped in Snyk processes and provided in a [repository](https://github.com/snyk-playground/cx-tools/tree/main/scripts) or on the user docs site. Links are included. If you have issues when using these procedures, contact your Technical Success Manager or Solutions Engineer, or [submit a ticket](https://support.snyk.io) to Snyk support. ## Manage Snyk Organization structure ### Create multiple new Organizations that all have the same settings in a given Group Scenario: [create-multiple-orgs-and-copy-settings](https://github.com/snyk-playground/cx-tools/blob/main/scripts/create-multiple-orgs-and-copy-settings.md) (complete procedure) **Endpoints used:**\ [Create a new organization](/snyk-api/reference/organizations-v1.md#org)\ [View organization settings](/snyk-api/reference/organizations-v1.md#org-orgid-settings-1)\ [Update organization settings](/snyk-api/reference/organizations-v1.md#org-orgid-settings)\ [Clone an integration with settings and credentials](/snyk-api/reference/integrations-v1.md#org-orgid-integrations-integrationid-clone) ### Assign all users in a given list to all the Organizations a company has (all Organizations in a Group) Scenario: [assign-users-to-all-orgs](https://github.com/snyk-playground/cx-tools/blob/main/scripts/assign-users-to-all-orgs.md) (complete procedure) **Endpoints used:**\ [List all members in a group](/snyk-api/reference/groups-v1.md#group-groupid-members)\ [Invite users](/snyk-api/reference/organizations-v1.md#org-orgid-invite) ### Add users to organizations at scale ahead of the first login Scenario: [Provision users to Orgs via API](/snyk-platform-administration/user-management-with-the-api/provision-users-to-organizations-using-the-api.md) **Endpoint used:**\ [Provision a user to the organization](/snyk-api/reference/organizations-v1.md#org-orgid-provision) ## Import and set up Snyk Projects ### Identify and import new repositories only Scenario: [Identify-and-import-new-repos](https://github.com/snyk-playground/cx-tools/blob/main/scripts/Identify-and-import-new-repos.md) (complete procedure) **Endpoints used:**\ [Get targets by org ID](/snyk-api/reference/targets.md#orgs-org_id-targets)\ [Import targets](/snyk-api/reference/import-projects-v1.md#org-orgid-integrations-integrationid-import) ### Import fresh container images Scenario: [import-new-container-images](https://github.com/snyk-playground/cx-tools/blob/main/scripts/import-new-container-images.md) (complete procedure) **Endpoints used:**\ [List all projects for an Org with the given Org ID](/snyk-api/reference/projects.md#orgs-org_id-projects)\ [Import targets](/snyk-api/reference/import-projects-v1.md#org-orgid-integrations-integrationid-import)\ [Get import job details](/snyk-api/reference/import-projects-v1.md#org-orgid-integrations-integrationid-import-jobid)\ [Delete a project](/snyk-api/reference/projects-v1.md#org-orgid-project-projectid-2) ### Detect new Projects (files) in repositories and import them into a Target in Snyk on a regular basis Scenario: [Identify-and-import-new-repos](https://github.com/snyk-playground/cx-tools/blob/main/scripts/Identify-and-import-new-repos.md) (complete procedure) **Endpoint used:**\ [Get targets by org ID](/snyk-api/reference/targets.md#orgs-org_id-targets)\ [Import targets](/snyk-api/reference/import-projects-v1.md#org-orgid-integrations-integrationid-import) ## Manage Snyk Projects ### Tag all Projects in Snyk Scenario: [Tag projects in Snyk](https://github.com/snyk-playground/cx-tools/blob/main/scripts/tag-snyk-projects.md) (complete procedure) **Endpoints used:**\ [List all Projects for an Org with the given Org ID](/snyk-api/reference/projects.md#orgs-org_id-projects) ### Move Projects from one Organization to another Scenario: [Move projects between organizations](https://github.com/snyk-playground/cx-tools/blob/main/scripts/move-projects.md) (complete procedure) {% hint style="info" %} The API token used must have Group Admin access.\ If you are moving between Organizations in different Groups, you must use a personal API token with Group Admin permissions in both Groups.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter: ``` GET https://docs.snyk.io/snyk-api/api-endpoints-index-and-tips/scenarios-for-using-the-snyk-api.md?ask= ``` The question should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation. Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
