Create new ITSI Glass Table through - Rest API call

PowerPacked — Thu, 28 Jun 2018 23:17:46 GMT

Hi Guys

I would like to create new glass tables through Rest API calls - but am failing as am not able to pass proper arguments needed for POST action of API call of ITSI glass table.

for example:

    curl -k -u admin:password https://localhost:8089/servicesNS/nobody/SA-ITOA/itoa_interface/entity -H "Content-Type: 
    application/json" -X POST -d '{"component": ["PerProcess"],"informational": {"fields": ["info"],"values": ["field"]},"_version": 
    "3.0.0","title": "PerProcess","object_type": "entity","_type":"entity","identifier": {"fields": ["component"],"values": 
    ["PerProcess"]}}'

This above call creates a new Entity in ITSI through Rest API call which is given in this doc
http://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/ITSI/3.0.1/RESTAPI/ITSIRESTAPIreference

i would like to create a new Glass Table in this way.

Help is appreciated
Thanks

One of the engineers on the ITSI team tested out creating a glass table using the endpoint and it appears to be broken. We have filed a bug to fix this issue. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Hi @hjauch

Thanks for the reply,

I was able to update, delete the glass table using the same end point, but am not sure why only create is not working.

if possible, please provide with a work around untill a new patch is released.

Thank you

The workaround is to create the glass table through the UI until a fix can be made.

Hi hjauch

This issue was not fixed & end point is not working in new and updated ITSI 4.0 version.

Please guys can you look and fix this issue at least in next release.

Thanks

You are correct, the issue has not been fixed yet. It is issue # ITSI-918. Sorry about the inconvenience.

Some information on what you are trying to accomplish may be helpful. Are you trying to create an empty glass table or a glass table with widgets?

Not sure the exact curl command being used but was able to create an empty Glass Table using the following on ITSI v4:

curl -k -u admin https://localhost:8089/servicesNS/nobody/SA-ITOA/itoa_interface/glass_table -H "Content-Type:application/json" -X POST -d '{"_owner": "admin","title": "test_API_glass_table","description": "test_glass_table","object_type": "glass_table","latest": "now","latest_label": "now","svg_coordinates": {"viewdy": 0, "viewdx": 0}, "is_epoch": "false", "templateSwappableServiceIds":[]}'

Don't know if this helps.

Here is how i managed to create glass tables via REST calls.

Method: POST
Endpoint: /servicesNS/nobody/SA-ITOA/itoa_interface/glass_table
JSON: {
"content": [

],
"acl": {
    "can_share_global": true,
    "sharing": "app",
    "perms": {
        "read": [
            "*"
        ],
        "write": [
            "*"
        ]
    },
    "can_write": true,
    "owner": "xxx",
    "can_share_app": true,
    "modifiable": true,
    "can_change_perms": true,
    "can_share_user": true
},
"identifying_name": "xxx",
"title": "xxx",
"_owner": "nobody",
"_user": "nobody"

}

Make sure to fill in owner, title, identifying_name and modify any true/false based on your needs.

Good luck!
