Systems Management : Querying assets via API

Querying assets via API

Hello,

I'm trying to query the assets via the K1 API. The example in the doc (/machines?shaping=machine all,software limited&sorting=software.name desc&use_count=false&filtering=id lt 1000&paging=limit) works fine.

But I can't do the same with assets.

The doc tells to do it like :

GET /api/asset/assets/

So I did :

https://k1000/api/asset/assets

The answer is :

{
    "message": "Asset with ID assets does not exist."
}

I try to replace "assets" with an asset ID :

https://k1000/api/asset/22408

And then get some information about it :

{
    "ID": 22408,
    "ASSET_TYPE_ID": 1,
    "ASSET_TYPE_NAME": "Location",
    "NAME": "- REPRO",
    "MODIFIED": "2018-04-12 12:28:28",
    "CREATED": "2018-04-12 12:28:28"
}

That's the better information I can get. No query like filtering or shaping works on assets as they works on machines. Only giving the asset id works.

Do some of you succeed in querying assets ?

I used Postman to verify /api/asset/assets/ is working. Can you give us more details about the headers, version of appliance and what programming language or tool you used. - KevinG 5 years ago
- Currently i'm using postman too. K1000 v.8.1.108
  
  First I authenticate :
  POST /ams/shared/api/security/login HTTP/1.1
  Host: k1000.univ-ubs.fr
  Accept: application/json
  Content-Type: application/json
  Cache-Control: no-cache
  
  {
  "password" : "apimanPass",
  "userName" : "apiman",
  "organizationName" : "UBS-CGP"
  }
  
  Then I'm querying the assets with the csrf token sent by the api :
  
  GET /api/asset/assets/ HTTP/1.1
  Host: k1000.univ-ubs.fr
  Accept: application/json
  Content-Type: application/json
  x-dell-csrf-token: 3edc622125b0417b2321e1cdd2476719ec01d8cf0afa896f99c6f604e898a196409b000fef11daa7a7fa143d9c9023ebef4edfb5ca473954db8a85aef15a9a48
  Cache-Control: no-cache
  
  And I received a 404 not found...
  
  Without the ending / the response is :
  {"message": "Asset with ID assets does not exist."} - gwir 5 years ago
