Installation / How to Create API key?

« on: April 27, 2018, 08:24:04 PM »

Hello, is there any way to create an API key without going through the UI? Is there some way I can input values into a config file or something? I have some scripts to automate some user management tasks through the API, but I can't find any way to automate the API key generation itself.

Any tips?

I figured out why I was receiving this error. I was sending "default" as the value for the package key. When I changed it to "1", the request worked. I believe the correct value for this field should correspond to HTML value of the Option element in the drop-down, not the text of the element.

Hopefully this helps someone else.

The action to add a new user account partially completes, because if you run a second identical request, you receive this the second time:

Code: [Select]

{"status":"Error","msj":"already exists in \/etc\/passwd!"}

and what happens if you use any other option (Change password, Suspend, etc)

When I execute an API call to change a password, it works just fine:

Code: [Select]

{"status":"OK"}I tested it, and the new password must be used, in order to log in with the user.
It looks like there's an issue with the Add Account web service.

I'm having my CWP (brand new instance) server call a PHP script, which hits the API, and I have the exact same issue as the OP when trying to create a new account. If I change the action to 'list', instead of 'add', I get

Code: [Select]

{"status":"OK","msj":"no records exist"}, which is correct.
