Steps
Deploy Blancco's erasure software (e.g. Drive Eraser, Mobile Diagnostics) integrated with a licensed Blancco Management Console/Portal, which is the system of record the API operates against
Consult the API documentation on the Blancco Support Portal for the licensed product, since erasure execution, results reporting, and certificate export are distinct API surfaces
Call the reporting/export API to retrieve erasure results and tamper-proof Certificate of Erasure records (drive manufacturer, model, serial number, capacity, erasure standard used) for each processed asset
Wire the API into an ITAD/ERP asset-tracking system so a device's erasure certificate attaches automatically to its chain-of-custody record before resale or scrap disposition
For white-labeled client reporting, use the API to push erasure results directly into a client-facing portal instead of manually exporting and re-uploading certificates
Known gotchas
Full API documentation is gated behind a Blancco Support Portal login tied to an active license — there is no public self-serve API reference
Triggering an erasure and exporting its certificate/report are separate integration points; confirm which endpoint a given workflow step actually covers
Certificates are tied to a specific erasure standard/method (e.g. NIST 800-88); downstream compliance records need to capture the standard used, not just a pass/fail flag
