Is there a way to integrate with Rest API and retrieve all computer properties automatically?
Yes, it is possible, but attempting to obtain every single result from an RP—there could be thousands—will be a very bad approach. The recommended approach should be tailored to your needs; if you want to obtain multiple properties, its best to put them into analysis & export based on that analysis.
If the data is being used for reporting, you can generate a Rest API URL and provide it to the relevant team for reporting integration. This way, the team can retrieve the data as needed based on their schedule.
There may be several choices available for automatically gathering data. Powershell scripts in conjunction with scheduled tasks, among other things, can be used to call Rest APIs and retrieve desired data if you are integrating it with another tool.
