Feature request, Agent bulk install w/ registration

So far, so great I gotta say...

I'd like to be able to deploy the agent en masse, via ansible or whatever. Have it register and create its' own host entry in patchmon. Does that seem reasonable?

We have this feature request in the Planned card section - So going to close this request here.

Cool, yeah I was wondering how it would handle the auth keys and all that.... but being able to deploy via a playbook would potentially be a great help.

Hi yes,

This is do-able and it's been requested a few times.

Our plan is to create "Enrollment only" role and user, which will have API keys to the backend server.
This role/user/api credential can then be used by ansible as part of Post-Server configuration to enroll it to PatchMon.
