Snipe-IT Asset Management Script

Overview

This PowerShell script is designed as an agent for the Snipe-IT asset management system. It performs the following tasks:

1. Retrieve Computer Information: Gathers detailed information about the computer, such as model, serial number, RAM, CPU, OS version, kernel, storage type, storage capacity, MAC addresses, IP addresses, and more.
2. Search and Create Models: Searches for the computer model in Snipe-IT. If it doesn't exist, the script creates a new model.
3. Search and Create Assets: Searches for the computer asset in Snipe-IT using the serial number. If it doesn't exist, the script creates a new asset and populates various custom fields with the gathered information.
4. Update Existing Assets: Updates the existing asset's name and custom fields if there are any changes.
5. Hyper-V VM Information: Checks if Hyper-V is installed and, if so, lists the VMs on the host and updates a custom field with this information.

Prerequisites

• Snipe-IT API Token: You need a valid Snipe-IT API token with appropriate permissions to access and modify models and assets.
• PowerShell: The script is written in PowerShell and requires PowerShell to execute.

3. Update the custom fields in the Get-CustomFields function to match the ones in your Snipe-IT installation.
