I am looking to see if there is a way to get all windows updates, including the name and ID of the fixlets based on OS and release date, and category (Critical and Security Only) using the API.
This would help towards me being able to try to automate adding the latest fixlets to our baseline templates. Any help would be great. I do not see anything in the functions built into the API that can do this and it is frustrating to say the least.
Try this as a sample to build on. I use the Bigfix Session Relevance Tester to build/validate these types of queries.
//All MSyy-mmm buletins excluding superseded and corrupt
(ids of it, names of it, source severity of it) of bes fixlets whose (
name of site of it = "Enterprise Security" and
name of it contains (regex "(MS\d\d-(JAN|FEB|MAR|APR|MAY|JUN|JUL|AUG|SEP|OCT|NOV|DEC)\:)") and
name of it as lowercase does not contain "superseded" and
name of it as lowercase does not contain "corrupt" and
source severity of it = "Critical"
)This looks great, let me give it a shot and I will see what happens. Thank you…
