We would like to be able to manage temporary access via the API so that we can integrate it with our existing systems (like ticketing system). Right now we use a webhook to create a ticket when access is requested, but we need to manually grant the access via RDM or other platforms. We would like to make an API call to automate this.
As this is the primary reason we are using this product (giving temporary access to our clients to our servers) we would like to see an API addition.
Hello,
When you say manage, what exactly are you looking for? Creating a temporary request on a specific vault on behalf of the user? On a specific entry? Approving/Denying a request? I notice you also posted this in the Devolutions Server forum (DVLS). Do you use both data sources?
Manage temporary access via API / powershell

Hi Maxime,
Thank you for your response!
Well our primary use-cases are:
We do not need to create requests on behave of users.
I did indeed request this for Devolutions server as well. We primarily use Business hub for now, but if this feature is only possible on Devolutions server then we will need to switch over. That is why I also requested it for that product. Also I am unsure how much of your Devolutions server shares code with Business hub and I can imagine that both products benefit from this feature, because Devolutions is one of the few products that work with temp access in a way that is useful to us (and I think more businesses).
Kind regards,
Ian
Hi Ian,
Thanks for the clarifications. I’ve created a feature request in our backlog to support temporary access via PowerShell. I think it would be the easiest approach since we already have functions to retrieve users, vaults, and entries—and those would also be required to build the temporary access request.
Have a good day!

Hi Maxime,
Thank you!
I understand that you don't have an ETA for this. However how do I get notified if there is any update?
Kind regards and have a nice day!

p.s. I added a link to this thread in the other feature request.
Hi Ian,
You can subscribe to this topic, if not already done, once released we typically reply to let you know it's available.
Have a good day!
