      <title>Anyway to automate assignments in 4.x?</title>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;There is an API for 2.x app volumes, and with the new App Volume Tools you can get something working to automate app volume captures, but is there anyway to automate the app volume assignments in app volumes 4.x?&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Thanks,&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Gary Dawkins&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;First off, thanks so much for your reply! I'm really stuck here trying to figure out how I can automate the assignment process.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;It looks like this tool just syncs existing assignments from one App Volume Manager to another. The only way I could imagine this could work is if I use the app volume 2.x API to automatically create assignments, and then the fling tool to convert them to a 4.x assignment. Is that what you're suggesting, or am I missing some functionality of this tool?&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Thanks again,&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Gary Dawkins&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;What is your intent with automating assignments?&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;This is for Continuous Integration automation in dynamic infrastructure. VMs would need to be able to register themselves for specific use cases where even the same user might be assigned multiple projects.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;Without automation we would need &amp;lt;LOTS&amp;gt; of user accounts to accomplish a simple task of just doing the assignment of an App Volume to a VM.&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;&lt;SPAN&gt;The App Volumes API is just not public for 4.x yet. &amp;nbsp;You can see the API endpoints by using browser developer tools. This will show you how to automate creation of an Assignment. &amp;nbsp;Create a new assignment in the UI and watch the developer tools. &amp;nbsp;This API is not supported, but this would be a way to automate the assignments. &amp;nbsp;That is how I built the entitlement sync Fling.&lt;/SPAN&gt;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Typically I assign a security group to Applications, so you would then only need to automate your add of a user to an AD Group or an OU?&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Awesome! Thanks so much for that tip Chris. I'll use my browser's developer tools to see what the API endpoints are. Thanks again!&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Gary Dawkins&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Also, make sure to look at the payloads that are expected. &amp;nbsp;Some are query string, and some are JSON body&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;&lt;span class="lia-inline-image-display-wrapper lia-image-align-inline" image-alt="Screen Shot 2021-05-24 at 5.52.59 PM.png" style="width: 999px;"&gt;&lt;img src="https://communities.vmware.com/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/89004i597F2945482EE289/image-size/large/is-moderation-mode/true?v=v2&amp;amp;px=999" role="button" title="Screen Shot 2021-05-24 at 5.52.59 PM.png" alt="Screen Shot 2021-05-24 at 5.52.59 PM.png" /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Yep, that would be the easiest way. &amp;nbsp;Just just assign a group and add/remove users that way through AD automation&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Got it. I found where the browser shows the request payload information. I'm used to the payload info required since I looked into the app volumes 2.x API trying to get this to work, but I wasn't aware that the developer tools would show me all this info. Thanks again for everything!&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;</description>
