Hi All,
I have a requirement to exclude particular asset with asset tag name as ABC and id as 123. So, I gave tag_set_exclude as http parameter and tag ID in values. However, it doesn't work. so, by referring the articles I have added tag_exclude_selector also in the HTTP parameter. But it doesn't work. Anyone has any idea about this please help me. It's urgent.

Hi Buddy,
It looks like this wont work unless the value your passing is a Qualys tag, not the ServiceNow asset tag field.
The tag_set_exclude parameter only works when filtering by Qualys tags and it must be used along with the full tag filter set. Just passing the tag ID aloone wont take effect.
You’ll need to include the following parameters together:
use_tags=1
tag_set_by=id or name, depending on what you’re using
tag_set_exclude=123
tag_exclude_selector=any
Also, please confirm:
the ID “123” is a Qualys tag ID (not a ServiceNow sys_id and
the asset is actually tagged in Qualys with that tag.
If your trying to exclude based on the ServiceNow asset tag value like asset_tag = ABC these parameters wont apply, since the API filtering happens on the Qualys side, not ServiceNow.
