Commonly-Used Scan Export Filters for Tenable.io
The Scan Export Filters documentation now describes commonly-used filter query parameters for scan export data.
Connectors API Support for Networks
The API now supports associating connectors with Tenable.io networks by adding the network_id
field to the connector object.
Scan Filtering
You can now use these API endpoints to get a list of available scan and scan history filters:
List Agents in an Agent Group
Added new content describing the GET /scanners/{scanner_id}/agent-groups/{agent_group_id}/agents
endpoint for listing agents for an agent group. See List agents for agent group.
Tag-Based Scans for Tenable.io API
You can now configure Tenable.io scans to target assets based on one or more tags you have assigned to the assets. For example, you might want to run more frequent scans of assets running a Windows operating system. Rather than manually configuring a scan to target a static group of Windows assets, you can configure Tenable.io to automatically apply a tag to any asset that a scan identifies as running Windows. Then, you can configure a scan to evaluate any asset with that tag on an appropriate frequency.
Added Code Samples for PowerShell and Kotlin
Tenable API Explorer now provides client request code samples in PowerShell and Kotlin.
New Error Condition for Tenable.io Dynamic Tags
Tenable.io now returns a 400 response message if you submit a request to create or update a dynamic tag rule using an invalid parameter.

Tenable has updated the permissions required for a number of Tenable.io Container Security API endpoints (both v1 and v2). The affected endpoints are listed in the tables below.
Installed Software for Tenable.io API
If configured to use Nessus Plugin ID 45590, Tenable.io scans identify software applications installed on an asset, and log that information to a new attribute in the asset record. This attribute, installed_software
, contains a list of Common Platform Enumeration (CPE) values in the CPE 2.2 format. For more information, see the "Component Syntax" section of the CPE Specification, Version 2.2.
