Automating Device Warranty Checks with ControlUp Workflow

A team member asked if they can get help on a workflow – getting device information, checking warranty, and tagging the device accordingly. Another team member responded that it depends on how the data is returned by the vendor’s APIs and suggested using if/else nodes and splitting tags. The first team member will try it out on their Dell devices and share it for testing.

Can i also ask for help on a workflow

I want to get device – Check warranty – Tag device with "Inwarranty" or "outwarranty"

Let me think about this. It’s a good idea. But it depends a little bit on how data is returned by the vendor APIs. If it comes back as a date, it might need some clever date comparison, maybe through regex or other way. If it explicitly comes back with a value of true/false (or similar), its probably easier. After getting the data, we just need the if/else node and split which tag it sets

Let me see if I can do this in my lab for Dell

Progress

Whats awesome

So all my devices are out of warranty, so I can’t fully test it, but this is what I build (I will export it in a minute so you can test if you have dell devices)
