BigFix Relevance Boot Camp - Egham, UK
BigFix Custom Content Development Course
September 16 - 17, 2019  ·  HCL Great Britain

You are familiar with many solutions that exist as part of the BigFix platform, now come join us for a complimentary hands-on Relevance Training course to learn how to make BigFix work the way YOU want it to.


Breakfast/Coffee and Lunch will be provided all days of this class.

During this course you will learn how to use the Relevance language to query information about your endpoints.  You will gain an understanding of available properties from Agent Inspectors, how to filter data, and how to format results.  Ultimately you will learn to use Relevance and Actionscript to create your own Fixlets, Tasks, and Analyses.

We will also hold additional sessions during lunch to cover features such as BigFix Query, the REST API, and advanced Web Reports.

Is this an introductory course appropriate for new BigFix administrators?
While we would never discourage anyone from furthering their knowledge of BigFix, the content development course is a deep dive into the low level internals of what makes BigFix work.
