Resource-group

The following resources are available for managing resource groups.

A resource group is logical set of managed devices that you can view collectively and act on. There are two types of resource groups:

  • Static. Customized group of specific devices.

  • Dynamic. Rule-based group of devices (for example, all servers of a specific type). This group contains a dynamic list of devices based on a set of inventory properties.

Actions cannot be performed on a resource group; however, you can select all devices in the group, and perform actions collectively on all selected devices.

  • /resourceGroups
    Use this REST API to retrieve information about all resource groups, create a single resource group, modify resource-group properties, add devices to a specific static group, or change the criteria of a dynamic resource group.
  • /resourceGroups/{uuid}
    Use this REST API to retrieve information about a specific resource group, change group properties, change the criteria of a dynamic resource group, add or remove devices from a static group, and delete a resource group.
  • /resourceGroups/criteriaProperties
    Use this REST API to retrieve inventory properties that you can use to specify criteria for dynamic resource groups.
