Hi,
Is there a way to list all the computer names by using BigFix API? So far it seems that https://bigfix server:52311/api/computers returns only all Computer IDs, which is not what we need.
Thanks in advance!

You could do something like this:
https://bigfixserver:52311/api/query?relevance=(name of it) of BES Computers
Hi robbac,
As mentioned by mikel, you can use the REST API /api/query but don’t forget it requires WebReports installed https://developer.bigfix.com/rest-api/api/query.html.
Otherwise, if a WebReports is not available, you can process the list returned by /api/computers and call /api/computer/ (https://developer.bigfix.com/rest-api/api/computer.html) for each os them, filtering the response by the property Computer Name in this way:
/api/computer/1234?fields=Property<Name=Computer%20Name>
Thanks! Worked like a charm. Sad that it’s XML though, not JSON.
Add “output=json” to the parameters and you’ll get results in JSON instead of XML.

Thanks! I guess you have answers to all of it. Great help!
