Unveiling the Future of Workspace Management

In today's fast-paced digital landscape, where efficiency and security are paramount, Splashtop Secure Workspace (SSW) stands out as a beacon of innovation. SSW, with its cutting-edge automation capabilities, is revolutionizing how IT administrators, developers, and end users manage and interact with their workspaces. In this blog post, we'll delve into the heart of SSW's automation prowess, exploring its remarkable features like Zero Trust Network Access (ZTNA) as code, full automation deployment, and its intuitive user experience.

A Step-by-Step Guide to Splashtop Workspace Automation

Splashtop Secure Workspace's rich set of APIs and full automation capabilities offer a seamless experience for managing workspaces and applications. The following steps, extracted from a recent demonstration video and the accompanying Python notebook, showcase the ease and efficiency of automating tasks within SSW:

  1. Starting with GitHub: The journey begins with cloning the 'splashtop-workspace-automation' repository, https://github.com/yanlinw/splashtop-workspace-automation.
  2. Diving into 'workspace.ipynb': This Python notebook is a hub of pre-written code and instructions, designed to guide users through the automation process with ease.
  3. Prerequisites Check: Ensuring access to a Splashtop Secure Workspace account and installation of Python and Jupyter notebook is crucial for a smooth experience.
  4. Generating the API Key: A key step involves generating an API key via the Secure Workspace web console, a gateway to automating various tasks within the workspace.
  5. Running the Jupyter Notebook: This step involves installing necessary Python libraries and setting up environment-specific variables like server_url and organization name.
  6. Authenticating and Obtaining Tokens: A critical step to access the workspace and initiate automation processes.
  7. Retrieving Organization Information: This information acts as the cornerstone for automating tasks within the workspace.
  8. Provisioning Remote RESTful API Service: An essential step for enabling users to connect remotely and invoke APIs from their workstations.
  9. Establishing Network Tunneling: This facilitates direct API calls to the remote RESTful application, enhancing the automation experience.
  10. Cleanup and Secure Closure: Ensuring a tidy and secure workspace post-automation is as important as the setup process.
