Support API

Is your feature request related to a problem?

It would be incredibly helpful for PAN to provide an API endpoint to collect data that is otherwise not available in an automated fashion. For example, https://live.paloaltonetworks.com/t5/customer-resources/pan-os-globalprotect-amp-user-id-preferred-release-guidance-from/ta-p/258304 or https://www.paloaltonetworks.com/services/support/end-of-life-announcements/end-of-life-summary

Describe the solution you'd like

A set of REST endpoints that allow for calls similar to:

• GET /api/v0/support/pan-os/releases
  • This would list all releases for PAN-OS, their "recommended" status, their in-support and EoS dates.
• GET /api/v0/support/pan-os/releases/<version number>
  • This would list the same as above but for a specific version number.
• GET /api/v0/support/ngfw/<model>
  • This would return the release date, and EoL dates (standard and extended) for a given model

Alternatively endpoints whereby parameter filters could be used to collect this info would work as well.

GET /api/v0/support/products?category=ngfw&model=<model number> - This would cover any product, and could be sortable

GET /api/v0/support/releases?category=pan-os&recommended=true - Gives you recommended only PAN-OS releases.

Could combine the 2 in case there are specific releases not elligible for a given device.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Perhaps a published JSON file that could be accessed through a standard web request and parsed client side would work as well

Additional context

My specific requirement is finding a way to populate software versions and their support information into a DCIM / Network Source of Truth system like NetBox or Nautobot without having to do it manually.

The issue does not identify repository files, tests, or an implementation entry point. Start by locating the existing API structure and determining where support and product data could come from; done means an agreed endpoint or published JSON interface provides the requested release, recommendation, and lifecycle information.
