API endpoints added to Private Catalog

Note:This enhancement is available with IT Visibility.

New public API endpoints have been released for Private Catalog.

As a result, customers no longer have to rely solely on the UI for managing Private Catalog Releases and Private Catalog Evidence in Applications & Evidence > IT Visibility Software.

With the newly released API endpoints, customers can create releases, map evidences to releases and more, using any tool that supports REST API calls like Postman, or even a simple CURL script.

Tasks that can be performed using these APIs are:

•

Creating a private catalog release

•

Updating private catalog release details

•

Deleting a private catalog release

•

Mapping software evidence to a release

•

Re-pairing software evidence

•

Listing all releases created

•

Fetching release details that match a Release ID or other filtering criteria

These API endpoints will allow customers to automate release creation and evidence mapping. They will enable faster execution and simplify the compliance and troubleshooting needs with every API call being logged.

Previously, using the UI was more laborious and error-prone when handling a large number of releases and mapping, and could not be scaled for large-scale or repeatable tasks.
