URL url = new URL("https://<nexpose_netaddress>:<nexpose_port>");

// Create a session object
// NOTE: APISupportedVersion.XXX V1_0("1.0"), V1_1("1.1"), V1_2("1.2") These correspond the API version  
APISession session = new APISession(url, "xml", APISupportedVersion.V1_2, <username>, <password>));

...   
// see org/rapid7/nexpose/api/APISession.java for a list of supported API operations.   
// Example: The following will print out all the asset groups and their associated risk
List<AssetGroupSummary> assetGroups = (List<AssetGroupSummary>)session.listAssetGroups(session.getSessionID(), null);
for (AssetGroupSummary assetGroup : assetGroups)
{
   System.out.println("************************************");
   System.out.println("Name: " + assetGroup.getName());
   System.out.println("Risk: " + assetGroup.getRiskScore());
   System.out.println("************************************");
}
