2. Configure REST API Credentials BESSupport->ID# 1294

At the first start BigfixMeSync plugin:

1. Creates Bigfix.me Sync custom site
2. Imports on it dashboard and BESDomain files (5 Mb in total).

	I think the plug was pulled on this project and its not working anymore

	DSBF3327 - 7/10/2019 9:44:30 AM
	I'm not getting any new content. Not even new subscribed sites. I can only find a single error in all of the logs: Cannot retrieve bigfix.me content Error: ------------ Error Result The operation has timed out

	Martijng - 2/25/2019 11:59:10 PM
	Is there no more content being added to this, there aint no sync errors or anything but no new content either

	josh.pena - 9/25/2018 11:00:53 AM
	There are a few typos in the actionscript, most of which are in comments so they're irrelevant but one of them is in the actionscript itself. The very last line is "endifc" but it should simply be "endif" I was surprised to see that the action still worked and produced no syntax errors, but just thought I'd comment here for posterity.

	Hello, When I click Sync BFME Dashboard it shows BigfixME Synchronization Loading Console API but it just sits there. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you

	Does it make any security harm to the environment. Please share your comments. .

	jgstew - 6/4/2017 11:08:35 PM
	This plugin relies on .NET and I haven't tried it, but I don't think it will run on .NET Core or Mono, but it might be worth a try on a test system. This plugin does have some oddities as it is and I'm hoping for improvements or an alternative.

	jmckinzie - 7/7/2016 8:46:48 AM
	getting this : Failed if {NOT exists file "bigfixMeSync.xml" of folder (parameter "configFolder")} It never creates the custom site. Any ideas?

	IanDM - 7/4/2016 9:35:05 AM
	Another vote to have this plugin support Linux Servers. Please.

	Geckoman - 4/13/2016 10:42:39 AM (from another version)
	Any chance of getting this plugin for Linux BigFix servers at all please?
