How to switch a cloud asset from Unmanaged to managed by Snapshot?

[gregops]

I'm looking to automate switching of newly added Unmanaged assets, to managed by Snapshot, via the API. In the example screenshot, from the state shown in the top line, to the state shown in the bottom line.

I am able trigger a one off Snapshot using launch_scan_job (op ID CreateDeploymentEntity), and it does take a volume snapshot even for the Unmanaged asset, but the asset remains in the Unmanaged state, so there will be no further automated snapshots/scanning.

I couldn't find any other class/API that would allow me to set an asset to managed by Snapshot. Is this function currently not exposed in the API?

I am able to switch between Unmanaged and Snapshot in the web UI, back and forth, without issue.

Thanks.
