Run toolbox via api

Complementary Tools

Is there any way to leverage the api to run a toolbox on a pc.

My use case is I want to create a button to run something from a ticket submitted by a user. This would save me logging in to SH, finding their machine in the list etc.

Hi Nick,

I love this idea. Would the following work for you:

  • Expose a toolbox item ID to uniquely identify a tool to launch
  • Expose HTTP API endpoint that expects a machine ID and toolbox item ID, and executes the tool on the remote machine
  • Return result code and tool output in the HTTP response?

That would be perfect!

Was this ever implemented?

This would also help us better integrate SimpleHelp in our company, do you maybe have a timeline on when it would be implemented?
Thankyou!
