What can you do with Qualys on Tray.ai?
Qualys is a cloud security platform that scans networks, hosts and cloud assets for vulnerabilities and checks systems against compliance policies, with reports and remediation tickets. Tray.ai connects to Qualys through the HTTP Connector, so your workflows can call the Qualys API alongside the rest of your stack.
- Launch a VM scan when a new server is added to your asset inventory.
- List host detections daily and open tickets for critical findings in your IT service desk.
- Download a saved report and share it with the compliance team in your document storage.

- Basic authentication
Set it up
Connect Qualys to Tray.ai
Each step uses Qualys's own API details, from its documentation.
Step 1
Save Qualys's username and password
Save the credentials Qualys gives you as a Tray.ai authentication. The HTTP Client sends them as basic auth. They stay out of the workflow and out of the logs.
Step 2
Import a request from Qualys's docs
Add an HTTP Client step and paste a cURL example from Qualys's API docs. Tray.ai fills in the method, URL, headers, and query.
Step 3
Start with “List VM scans”
It's one of 20 documented actions, under VM scans. The response comes back as data the next step can map into your other apps.
Step 4
Hand it to an AI agent
Wrap “Launch a VM scan” and “Manage VM scans” in workflows, and Tray.ai's Agent Gateway for MCP publishes them as governed tools Claude and other AI agents can call.
