I am trying to create a role using splunk REST API (https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/8.2.5/RESTREF/RESTaccess#authorization.2Froles). The route works perfectly using postman, but when I try to invoke the same route using IServiceClient via .net core, I run in to "Cannot perform action "POST" without a target name to act on". Please let me know what other information I can provide. Have been searching on google for the error and in splunk documentation with no luck.
using (var client = _serviceClientFactory.GetServiceClient()) //client service factory returns a ServiceClient
{
PostRoleRequest request = new PostRoleRequest
{
name = Const.DefaultRoleName //this is the only required param
};
var response = await client.PostAsync<PostRoleResponse>($"/services/authorization/roles?output_mode=json", request);
}
public class PostRoleRequest
{
public string name { get; set; }
}
public class PostRoleResponse
{
public Entry entry { get; set; }
}
public class Entry
{
public string name { get; set; }
public string id { get; set; }
public DateTime updated { get; set; }
public List<string> links { get; set; }
public string author { get; set; }
public Acl acl { get; set; }
public Content content { get; set; }
}
