JSON

The JSON adapter is able to import .json files with information about devices, users, or installed software.

The adapter parameters are as same as the CSV adapter parameters. Although the JSON adapter parameter list does not include the File contains installed software information field, the adapter is capable of importing installed software data, but since it has a dynamic structure (unlike CSV), it is not required to declare that.

The functionality of this adapter is as same as the CSV adapter.

Example JSON File

        "list_example_field": [
            {
                "field1": "value1",
                "field2": "value2"
            }
        ],
        "installed_software": [
            {"swname": "softwar_example_123", "swversion": "v1.2.3.4.5.6.7.8.9.10"}
