Retrieve SupportAssist data using APIs

PC Management APIs in Connect and manage allow you to retrieve alerts, health, application, and security data of PCs in your fleet.

The PC Management APIs enables you to view:

  • PC alert information such as alerts type, commodity name, last activity on alert, description, and so on, for a specific PC, group of PCs, and PC fleet.
  • PC utilization information such as CPU, GPU, memory, battery, storage, and so on, for a specific PC, group of PCs, and PC fleet.
  • PC security data and application experience data for a specific PC, group of PCs, and PC fleet.
NOTE:PC Management APIs are available for the PCs that have an active ProSupport, ProSupport Plus, or ProSupport Flex for Client service plan.
NOTE:APIs are not available for partners and their clients.
