Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A system and method for generating a snapshot of data associated with one or more cloud-based applications are disclosed. Application programming interfaces (APIs) and connections associated with one or more applications registered and on a server computer and used by a company are retrieved from a table by a lookup. All data associated with the one or more applications based on the APIs and connections are also retrieved. The data associated with the one or more applications is then mapped to a client-specific representation and data format. The data associated with the one or more applications is converted to the client-specific representation and data format.
