HI Diggesh, Thanks for your reply. That is weird than as the staging db would only grow over time, neither would it be an "staging db" in my opinion. Thanks, I am aware of the data flow. What I mean is how long does it remain in FNMS db? Or is that also endless. Cheers Ronald    ... View more

Hello all, thanks for the valuable feedback. This is a SOAP API but is accessed through a Business adapter instead of through a PowerShell script. So it will make it slightly more packable in terms of dependencies. Personally, I would still opt to go the PowerShell route for more flexibility. Apart from the permission challenges there were 2 other major limitations to the SOAP API: 1. FNMS data exposure was limited to the report model (similar to how Analytics is limited to its data models) 2. There’s a limit on how many data you can return and there’s no pagination built-in: The last one was a major issue at several customers since we were looking for a solution to expose the Compliance inventory for further BI but the connection errored out on massive data sets which was their (Enterprise Architects) main interest. For the first limitation we now have a solution in custom report SQL procedures. So we can actually expose more data for On-prem (either directly with db access or through SOAP API with custom report SQL procedures) in comparison to the new ITAM REST API, but are limited on the latter on the amount of data we can return. @nrousseau1 Nicolas do you knows a way to overcome this? A solution to paginate the data returned via the SOAP API, thanks and Regards Ronald  ... View more

thanks Kclausen.  Al tough you do have direct db acces many customers would like to see an API to integrate other products with FNMS. This is also because not everyone will get direct db acces and an API available from IIS FNMS webserver would be great then.Secondly for those customers who might migrate to F1 in the future it would save them developing things twice.  ...

HI Nicolas, Why is WMI Evidence threaded differently? Why not at Unrecognized Evidence-->Installer Evidence and then try to filter on WMI or Registry. Or Create a new Class WMI Evidence? The default is to look at Unrecognized Evidence and there it is not. It is good that further more at different parts in the product it is. But at the starting point it is missing. And as you stated The downside is that you must know what you look for . This is really an issue since you don't always know what you are exactly looking for. ... View more

Thanks Chris, This is also how I understood it. The only issue is that customers are scanning on the log4j-core-2.7.jar  file so altouh the vulnerable file is no longer presents alarm are still being triggered. Secondly customer have the policy to install the patch so remove the file on itself is not sufficient enough for some customers.  I am getting the impression that there is no pressure on the Flexera side to come with an fix because there is an alternative. Unfortunate not all companies like the alternative and they still expect an fix from Flexera. ... View more
