Studying the population of faint hard X-ray sources along the plane of the Galaxy is challenging because of high-extinction and crowding, which make the identification of individual sources more difficult. IGR J18293-1213 is part of the population of persistent sources which have been discovered by the INTEGRAL satellite. We report on NuSTAR and Swift/XRT observations of this source, performed on 2015 September 11. We detected three eclipsing intervals in the NuSTAR light curve, allowing us to constrain the duration of these eclipses, $\Delta t = 30.8^{+6.3}_{-0.0}$ min, and the orbital period of the system, $T = 6.92\pm0.01$ hr. Even though we only report an upper limit on the amplitude of a putative spin modulation, the orbital period and the hard thermal Bremsstrahlung spectrum of IGR J18293-1213 provide strong evidence that this source is a magnetic Cataclysmic Variable (CV). Our NuSTAR and Swift/XRT joint spectral analysis places strong constraints on the white dwarf mass $M_{\rm wd} = 0.78^{+0.10}_{-0.09}$ M$_\odot$. Assuming that the mass to radius ratio of the companion star $M_* / R_* = 1$ (solar units) and using $T$, $\Delta t$ and $M_{\rm wd}$, we derived the mass of the companion star $M_* = 0.82\pm0.01$ M$_\odot$, the orbital separation of the binary system $a=2.14\pm0.04$ R$_\odot$, and its orbital inclination compared to the line of sight $i=(72.2^{+2.4}_{-0.0})\pm1.0^\circ$.
