Hello,

I'm in the process of moving from DS to Imagr.  I'm looking to name computers automatically based on it's record in our inventory system (Lansweeper in this case).  I've written a script to return the DNS name based on the serial number.  Can I simply put this in a script in my workflow, or would something else be required?

$ curl --data "serialNumber=mySerialNumber" http://server.ad.domain.tld:8080/nameLookup/
myComputerName.ad.domain.tld


Thanks,
Alexander

Sure, put that as a first boot script and I don’t see why it wouldn’t work. You obviously would need to handle setting the name.
