The ePO database schema typically changes from version to version to facilitate needed ePO adjustments and optimization. For this reason, we created a Web API that allows access to data via scripting. The Web APIs are extensible, and rarely change between versions.
For more information about Web API scripting,
see the
Web API Scripting Guide.
NOTE: Web API Scripting guides are also available from the Software Manager.
Key points:
- The Web API client (mcafee.py) is developed and tested with Python 2.x. Currently, there are no plans to test earlier or later versions of Python. We can't guarantee compatibility with other versions.
- ePO 5.10 ships with the latest version for Python 2.x.
- If you need to exchange data with the ePO database to integrate with business processes and products, use the Web APIs or contact our Professional Services.
