Introduction

How you can integrate software with Tachyon using public facing Application Programming Interfaces (API).

Tachyon RunInstruction command-line tool

Tachyon RunInstruction command-line tool is a stand-alone command line (CLI) tool that supports submission of a Tachyon instruction, question or action to a set of computers.

Tachyon .NET Consumer SDK

Tachyon .NET Consumer SDK is a self-contained C# .NET 4 assembly consisting of Consumer and Offloading SDKs.

• Tachyon Consumer SDK library — This SDK is an object oriented abstraction of Tachyon's Consumer API. It's designed to facilitate integration of 3rd party code with Tachyon through the API.
• Tachyon Offloading SDK library — This SDK has been created to simplify creation of software that will function as an offloading client, receiving responses from Tachyon.
• Tachyon SDK release information — Details of the Tachyon release history, current release notes and details of third-party licenses.

Using scope and filter expressions

How to use create Expression objects used by many API endpoints as filter or scope definitions.

How to guides

Section describing some basic and common Tachyon operations using the Consumer API and Consumer SDK.

• Add and remove Instruction Definitions and organize them into Instruction Sets
• Deal with connected devices running Tachyon Agent (now part of 1E Client)
• Find the right instruction definition
• Handling errors returned by Tachyon
• Issue an instruction, track its progress and retrieve responses
• Set up in instruction to be executed on a schedule
• Set up Principals, Roles and Permissions
