Inventory API

This page explains how to get your inventory extracted. Note that the example array of computers further down shows only the first computer and a subset of software installed for readability. You can use query parameters to filter your search.


Resources

/inventoryReturns an array of inventory computersGET
/inventory/{id}Returns one computer's inventory by idGET
/inventory/{computername}Returns one computer's inventory by computer nameGET
Note that the prefix of urls above depend on which data center you belong to. Please log in to see the full url.

Headers

apikeyYour apikey listed in your settings to retrieve the dataint

Filters

Filters can be supplied either as URL parameters or headers.

wantsoftwareUse this filter, if you wish to receive lists of installed software. The default is to not return installed softwarebit
wantgroupsUse this filter, if you wish to receive user and computer groups. The default is to not return groupsbit
startidThe starting ID you wish to receive. Can be used for incremental offload of data to your own systemint
takeMaximum number of resources to return. Default is 50 to preserve bandwidth, maximum is 10000. For queries with more than 10000 records, pagination is mandatoryint
  • Example filtered url to get 10 entries: /inventory?wantsoftware=1&take=10
  • Pagination works by using the last id in the list and feeding it as startid in the next query

Secure By Design Series - Part 2

In this blog, PowerON’s Steve Beaumont continues his delve into Admin By Request's Privileged Access Management (PAM) solution, this time focusing on sub-settings, application elevation tools, and auditing capabilities.

Dear Hacker, Better Luck Next Time.

There's no denying that hackers are good. We see this reflected in the frequent cyberattack stories that populate the news channels almost daily - most recently, the Lapsus$ attack on Okta. What we don't hear so much about? That Privileged Access Management software is better.
