Add Workstation CI

To add CIs use the following URL format:

http://<servername>:<portnumber>/api/cmdb/ci/

Assuming you are adding a CI in the local server with port number 8080, the URL should be given as:

http://localhost:8080/api/cmdb/ci

Keypoints:

Input is an XML string sent as "POST attribute" with key "INPUT_DATA".
The operation name "add" should be sent as a "POST attribute" with key "OPERATION_NAME".
The technician key should be sent as a "POST attribute" with key "TECHNICIAN_KEY".

Note:

Product Names will get added dynamically in case they are not already avilable in the application. In the below example, the product Latitude Optimus will be created while adding this workstation CI (in case the product is not already available in the application).
Technician with rights to adding assets (asset addition role) can perform add operations on assets CIs like workstaions,printers etc.
Technician having SDAdmin role can perform add operations on admin CIs like Business Service, Department etc.
CI-ID of the newly added entry is returned along with the CI Name in the response.
Technicians can add more than one C(s) using the <record> </record> tags.
CI Attributes, Global Attributes and custom CI Attributes for the corresponding CI Type can be added.
All asset additional attributes can be added
Parameter Result Format - Optional. specifies the return format ( XML or JSON )

If no result format specified then API will return output in JSON format.
