# Depot softwarereports

Registers the patch and request reports.

This page is generated from the Depot route table. Every operation carries the permission it needs and the anchor an agent can link to.

### GET `/api/v1/reports/patch-compliance` {#depot.softwarereports.getPatchComplianceReport}

**getPatchComplianceReport answers the fleet's standing plus the machines that make it up.**

THE SUMMARY COMES FROM THE STORE, NOT FROM THE ROWS BELOW IT.
GetPatchCompliance counts in SQL over the whole fleet and knows about endpoints
with no patch rows at all - the compliant ones and the never-scanned ones -
which a fold over outstanding rows cannot see. Recomputing the tiles from the
capped row set would produce a report whose headline disagreed with the console
on any fleet large enough to hit the cap, and disagreed silently.

#### Parameters

| Name | In | Type | Required | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `format` | query | string | No |  |

#### Responses

| Status | Body | Description |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `200` | `application/octet-stream`, string (binary) | Success. |
| `400` | `application/problem+json`, ProblemDetails | One or more validation errors occurred. |
| `401` | `application/problem+json`, ProblemDetails | No signed-in identity. |
| `403` | `application/problem+json`, ProblemDetails | The identity does not hold patch:read. |
| `500` | `application/problem+json`, ProblemDetails | No client store in request context. |

### GET `/api/v1/reports/software-requests` {#depot.softwarereports.getSoftwareRequestsReport}

**getSoftwareRequestsReport answers the self-service log: who asked for what and what was decided.**

It takes the SAME filters the request queue does, so a report of "everything
still pending" is the queue somebody is looking at rather than a second,
differently-narrowed set.

#### Parameters

| Name | In | Type | Required | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `agentId` | query | string | No |  |
| `format` | query | string | No |  |
| `packageId` | query | string | No |  |
| `state` | query | string | No |  |

#### Responses

| Status | Body | Description |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `200` | `application/octet-stream`, string (binary) | Success. |
| `400` | `application/problem+json`, ProblemDetails | One or more validation errors occurred. |
| `401` | `application/problem+json`, ProblemDetails | No signed-in identity. |
| `403` | `application/problem+json`, ProblemDetails | The identity does not hold software:read. |
| `500` | `application/problem+json`, ProblemDetails | No client store in request context. |
