# Search Applications

`POST /api/v2/Entities/Applications/search`

Search for applications running on the machine with an agent within the last 90 days. Get details such as the application name, username, machine, etc. by invoking the following endpoint:  

  > `POST https://YourAccount.lacework.net/api/v2/Entities/Applications/search` 

 FortiCNAPP highly recommends specifying a time range. Without a specified time range, the request uses the default time range of 24 hours prior to the current time. The maximum time range per API request is 7 days.  To use the current time as the end time, exclude the endTime field.

 You can optionally filter the returned applications by application name, username, machine, and more. For more information, see [APPLICATIONS_V View](https://docs.fortinet.com/document/forticnapp/latest/administration-guide/529927/applications-v-view).

 Here are some example `body` payloads: 
 * `{ "timeFilter": { "startTime": "2021-08-28T20:30:00Z", "endTime": "2021-08-28T22:30:00Z"}}`
