adding components to computer using api

Hello,

I have a problem regarding the use of the GLPI API.

I can successfully add a new computer to the GLPI system using HTTP requests (endpoint: /computer), and I can also add a new processor (endpoint: /processor).

GLPI uses a separate table in the SQL database to associate these components.

Is there an API endpoint or any other way to connect components to a computer via the API?

Re: adding components to computer using api

You can use "/Item_DeviceProcessor" and manually include the "itemtype": "Computer" and "items_id": ID properties.
You can also access them from "/Computer/ID/Item_DeviceProcessor" which can get just the ones associated with the specified computer.
However, if you try adding a processor from that endpoint too, you still need to manually add the itemtype and items_id properties. It isn't smart enough to automatically set them.
