Available Languages

BigFix provides you with proprietary querying and scripting languages that you can use to retrieve and manipulate information or to run commands on client systems.

The Client Relevance Language

Use it to locally interrogate the client system to retrieve information. The information retrieved can be combined and correlated with other information in a Boolean expression to determine applicability relevance and success criteria. It can also be used to run analysis, to substitute variables in action scripts, and to generate automatic computer groups.

The Session Relevance Language

Use it to retrieve information from the BigFix database. The information retrieved can be displayed in custom dashboards or web reports, or used to integrate with external applications.

The Action Script Language

Use it to run commands, named actions, from within Fixlets and Tasks on relevant clients. These actions, run in sequence, fix the problem identified by the Applicability Relevance clause.
