Is there any way to change IP address of already onboarded assets to Beyondtrust password safe? everytime we have to delete the older asset and then re-onboard the asset.

Yep!

I do it all the time via API. I don’t believe there is a specific KB for that exact scenario, but there is one explaining how to use the API with some examples (KB0017018).

In the API documentation, you should look at the Update asset section:

curl --request PUT \
--url https://example.com/beyondtrust/api/public/v3/assets/10101 \
--header 'accept: application/json' \
--header 'content-type: application/*+json' \
--data '
{
"IPAddress": "10.10.10.10"
}

I tried but didn’t work.

body:

{"IPAddress": "New IP Address",
                                 "AssetName":"BI-ZBS-PROD",
                                 'DnsName': 'BI-ZBS-PROD',
                                 'DomainName': 'BRAHMA',
                                 'OperatingSystem': 'Windows Server 2016 Datacenter',
                                 'Description': '',
                                 'WorkgroupID': 4,
                                 'AssetType': 'Server'
                                 }

@chitta201918 I you send you my ps1 script, you just need change some and the csv used has already a exemple you can use, but you just need to make sure the “AssetName” is the same on Assets and the script will do the rest.

Here is what you need to change on the script to work:

# 1. Your BeyondTrust API Base URL
$baseUrl = "https://your-beyondtrust-instance.com/BeyondTrust/api/public/v3/";

# 2. API Key and RunAs User
$apiKey = "YOUR_API_KEY_HERE";
$runAsUser = "YOUR_RUNAS_USER_HERE";

# 3. Path to your CSV file
$csvFilePath = ".\assets_teste.csv";

# 4. Target Workgroup Name
$workgroupNameUnico = "Default Workgroup";

# 5. File extension
Change the IP-Update.txt to ps1

PS

We just launch a quick discovery scan against the asset(s). As long as network DNS is correct, it corrects the IP address in the asset automatically

I know that, but here deployment is manual. We are adding assets, managed systems and managed accounts manually only. We are not running discovery scan against any assets.

Did my script help?

Could you kindly send me ps1 script too?

Thank you

@Pulitros144 Your script is just for assets right? I need it for both assets and managed system so that when user take RDP of the servers they should not redirect to old IP!!!
