Mend API (2.0)

Mend's enhanced SCA API enables automation of workflows in a REST compliant format. The API features:

  • Access for any user with Mend credentials, via a user key available in the user's profile page in the Mend App.
  • Improved security with a JWT token per organization, which expires every 30 minutes.
  • Added scalability with support for pagination, filtering and sorting search results.
  • Broader functionality available programmatically.
  • New standard API documentation for easy navigation and search.

If you have a dedicated instance of Mend, contact your Mend representative to access this API on your instance.

searchany

Filter your search to return items whose property has a specific value. Use the syntax: property:operation:value where a colon (:) separates between property, operation and value.

  • Property: the name of the property of the item
  • Operation:
    • equals - true if the value is identical to this value.
    • like - true if the property's value is contained within this value
    • regex - true if this regular expression resolves as true. The regex is not case sensitive, and special characters must be escaped with a backslash. Special characters include space, double quote ("), '<', '>', '#', '%', '{', '}', vertical bar ('|'), backslash, '^'. To pass an escaped character in a URL in Postman, encode it first. E.g. to return all items whose value begins with a or A, use regex:^a
  • Value: the value of the property.

To combine multiple filters, separate each filter with a semicolon with no space. E.g. property1:operation1:value1;property2:operation2:value2

This endpoint supports filtering on this property:

  • name:[like | equals | regex]:value
  • type:[like | equals ]:value
  • comment:[like | equals | regex]:value
  • markType:[equals]:value
sortany

Sort search results alphabetically on an item's property by entering sort= followed by the property name. E.g. enter sort=email to sort alphabetically by their email addresses from a-z ascending.To sort in descending order (z-a), add a minus sign ('-'). E.g. sort=-email.

You can sort by the following properties:

  • name
  • type
  • comment
  • markType
