Service Inventory Web Service
The Service Inventory Web Service provides an interface for scheduling, configuring, and executing the generation of service inventory billing reports. This web service allows you to retrieve, process, and generate service inventory reports in a Cisco common format.
You can find the details for working with the Service Inventory Web Service in the

https://your-hcs-box.example.com:8443/HCSWebServiceInterface/ServiceInventoryWebService?wsdl
Authentication
The Service Inventory APIs use HTTP Basic Authentication. You should use the HCS Admin username and password to authenticate the API calls.
Because the Service Inventory APIs use HTTPS, you will need to enable SSL support in your application. Depending on the specific technology used by your application, you may need to manually install the HCS certificate into a local trust store for your application.
