Parameter	Value type	Description
name	String	Required.
api_target_host	String	Specifies the target hosts where the API executes.

For example, `api_target_host=10.0.1.123`. host name or IP address of the central manager: specified from a managed unit to execute on the central manager. For example, `api_target_host=10.0.1.123`.
