Automating Atlassian Asset Discovery

[Venky Thiruvengadam]

Hi there, I am trying to find if we can automate the scan to gather asset information with following scenarios mentioned below and import data into JIRA Server Management. 

1. When a new asset joins the network, would like to gather data automatically about that asset.
2. When an asset is removed from the network, removes data about that asset.
3. Is there a way to just scope & collect specific information from an asset so only specific information can be imported. 

If you can provide some resources, that would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your time. 

Regards, Venky.

I found this post (mentioned below - that has points that I am looking for) in the resource (mentioned below) . But I couldn't find info about - how to automate in the Asset Discovery documentation. 

Hence can you please share that resource as I may have missed to see it.

Automatically discover objects in your environment with Assets Discovery

Assets Discovery is an agentless scanner (although there is an agent available to get more detailed information) that picks up network assets. You can choose which assets and attributes you pull into your Assets object schemas as well as create your own scanning patterns to find more niche assets. If you run it on a schedule, it will pick up changes and keep data updated. With automation rules, you can even trigger Jira issues, email notifications, and more based on detected changes. To use it, you need to download it and run it on your local machine.
