List of VpcSecurityProfiles


Retrieves a paginated collection of all VPC Security Profiles available within a specified project.
Each security profile in the response includes comprehensive security configuration details such as
north-south and east-west firewall settings, associated security strategies, and profile metadata.
The API supports standard pagination parameters for efficient data retrieval and includes sorting capabilities.
Currently, this API returns multiple predefined security profiles including the default profile and
additional system-generated profiles that offer various security postures (isolation, external connectivity,
essential services, etc.) for different VPC deployment scenarios.
GET /policy/api/v1/orgs/{org-id}/projects/{project-id}/vpc-security-profiles

Get VpcSecurityProfile


Retrieves a specific VPC Security Profile by its unique identifier within a project context.
The security profile contains comprehensive security configurations including north-south (Gateway Firewall)
and east-west (Distributed Firewall) settings. This API returns detailed information about VPC Gateway firewall enablement
status and associated security strategies that define the security posture for VPCs.
Currently, this API primarily returns system-generated default security profiles at the project level.
