Hands-On Lab: Master REST APIs in CA Application Performance Management
This document discusses automating the deployment of CA Application Performance Management (CA APM) agents using REST APIs. It describes how a QA engineer named Julie wants to simplify agent management. It outlines retrieving an agent package from the CA APM Command Center using REST calls, preparing a PowerShell script to download and extract the package, and executing the script to automate agent deployment. The goal is to demonstrate how to harness the Command Center APIs to manage CA APM agents through integration with deployment tools.
