Viptela has a set of APIs which can be used to integrate its functionalities with other solutions. This Proof of Value demonstrates the use of vManage APIs to automate the activation and deactivation of a vSmart policy based on a preset time and date. This application fetches all vSmart policies already present in vmanage and helps users to schedule a policy activation/deactivation based on a pre-selected time. This helps in operation automation where in the IT staff can schedule a policy activation/deactivation when the staff is not around or has no access to vmanage dashboard.
