IT Asset Management Data API enhancement

Note:This feature is available with IT Asset Management.

From this release, two new endpoints have been added to the IT Asset Management Data API to allow you to allocate/deallocate one or many licenses to users and devices within your organization’s technology-asset estate.

/fnms/v1/orgs/{orgId}/licenses/{licenseId}/allocation: This endpoint allows you to allocate devices/users to a license.

/fnms/v1/orgs/{orgId}/licenses/{licenseId}/deallocation: This endpoint allows you to deallocate devices or users from a license.

Note:The following license types can be allocated: User and Device license types which allow for allocation, including data center license types.

As well as allocating licenses, the new endpoints also allow you to assign license keys, assign an expiry date for the license, provide a reason why a user or device has been allocated to a license, and lastly provide a reason why a user or device is exempt from consuming a license.

The expiry date for each allocated license key can be viewed from the new Software license expiry date column in the Consumption tab within License Properties. In addition to the new Software license expiry date column in the Consumption tab, you can now add a license UUID property and license expiry date property in the Report Builder when creating custom reports.

For API documentation on the new endpoints, see IT Asset Management Data API.
