Hi @dinesh_mishra

Thanks for sharing.

Quick question for clarity:

Does agent discovery” only register/detect agents, or does it also ingest and populate agent properties for governance via Agent Aggregation mappings, and which agent attributes are available out of the box versus requiring Support-configured Agent schema changes?

thank you

Hi @amrdodani,

You can configure the Agent Schema like you are configuring the account schema. Agents will be aggregated based on the configured end-points and you can configure the schema attributes based on the response of provided end-points.

You can configure multiple endpoints as a parent and child structure to bring additional properties of agents.

Since Web Services SaaS is a generic connector, there is no out of the box schema attribute available with it. These attributes might be different for different systems and we can’t generalized it. Schema attribute should be defined prior to the Machine Identity Aggregation.

Thanks!

Hi @dinesh_mishra, thanks for the detailed explanation.

From an enterprise adoption perspective, it would be really helpful to understand which types of enterprise applications or platforms this Agent Discovery capability is most useful.

Are there any reference use cases or common enterprise apps this feature was primarily designed to support?
:slight_smile:
Thanks,
Amar

Awesome :clap:!

A quick inquiry, is this capability will be available in the Ambassador’s tenant as well?

Regards,
