GLPI Inventory plugin find computers ID from computers name

Hello,

I have a CSV with about 100 computer's names.

I need to create a Static computer groups to do a deploy.

The problem is that I can import only a CSV with computers' IDs, is there a way to get ID by computernames without doing it one by one?

You would need to use the GLPI API for that.
You could make a script to loop through each name, search for computers with that name through the API, and get the ID from the result.

You can enable the API and see the documentation for in in Setup > General in the API tab.

Re: GLPI Inventory plugin find computers ID from computers name

I have tried but the search replies without indication of the id (in this case I know that the id I have to discover is 6043).

I used:
http://glpi/apirest.php/search/Computer/?&criteria[0][link]=AND&criteria[0][field]=1&criteria[0][searchtype]=contains&criteria[0][value]=PCNAME&itemtype=Computer&start=0&session_token=mysessiontoken

    "totalcount": 1,
    "count": 1,
    "sort": [
        "1"
    ],
    "order": [
        "ASC"
    ],
    "data": [
        {
            "1": "NB-USERNAME",
            "126": [
                "10.22.11.64",
            ],
            "7": "username@NB-USERNAME",
            "70": null,
            "46": "2009",
            "61": "64-bit",
            "40": "20RW",
            "5": "LR84V81E",
            "31": null
        }
    ],
    "content-range": "0-0/1"
}

Maybe I'm searching in the wrong way?
