## Connect Akto with Mulesoft Flex Gateway

### Setup Akto Runtime and Data Ingestion Service

Follow these steps to add setup Akto Runtime and Data Ingestion Service -

1\. SSH into the instance where you want to deploy the above Akto services

2\. Run the following commands to download docker compose and env files

```
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/akto-api-security/infra/refs/heads/feature/quick-setup/docker-compose-data-ingestion-runtime.yml
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/akto-api-security/infra/refs/heads/feature/quick-setup/docker-mini-runtime.env
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/akto-api-security/infra/refs/heads/feature/quick-setup/data-ingestion-docker.env
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/akto-api-security/infra/refs/heads/feature/quick-setup/watchtower.env
```

3\. Modify ${AKTO\_KAFKA\_IP} in docker-compose-data-ingestion-runtime.yml with the ip of your instance on which runtime will be deployed

4\. Go to <https://app.akto.io>, and create your akto account. Login into your Account

5\. Go to **Connectors** in the left nav.

6\. Open the **Setup Guardrail** card and copy your token.

7\. Replace the token string with the copied value in the docker-mini-runtime.env file.

```plaintext
DATABASE_ABSTRACTOR_SERVICE_TOKEN=token
```

8\. Run `docker-compose -f docker-compose-data-ingestion-runtime.yml -d`

9\. Make sure this instance is reachable from the instances where your applications are hosted, on which policy will be applied

```
make build-asset-files
cargo build
make build
```

6\. Publish the policy to mulesoft exchange by running `make publish`

7\. Select your Agentic components on which you want to apply Akto Policy.

8\. Copy the instance ip where Akto Runtime was deployed, and replace \<url> in the below string and use it as input param `ingestionUrl` to the policy

`https://<url>:9091/api/ingestData`
