ScienceLogic rest api x-em7-run-as header validation
We discovered that after updating our SL1 platform from 12.1 to 12.3 that the validation of the rest api request header "X-EM7-RUN-AS" has changed and is now more strict. In SL 12.1, we can (for example) delete an event using admin credentials and use the x-em7-run-as header to actually execute the request on behalf of a different user (in our scenario we use a customer-specific account). We used '/api/account/<accountid>' as a value for this header. Since SL 12.3 (or somewhere after 12.1), we noticed that '/api/account/<accountid>' is no longer accepted: any rest api call using the x-em7-run-as with value '/api/account/<accountid>' will return a HTTP 401 Unauthorized with corresponding message: { "errors": [ { "errorcode": "NO_AUTH", "message": "Valid authentication credentials not provided" } ], "messages": [], "resource_body": null } However, if I simply put '<accountid>' as the value for this header, the request succeeds. Can you please improve the documentation (https://docs.sciencelogic.com/api-developer-docs/Content/Web_Content_Dev_and_Integration/ScienceLogic_API/methods_headers_and_responses.htm#request-headers) and specify that the value for this header must be a number which matches a real user in the system. Also, the request also fails when using an account id value and that account is Inactive. Would be nice to read it in the docs. error message when trying to execute an action on a suspended user: { "errors": [ { "errorcode": "NO_AUTH", "message": "Account \u0027em7admin\u0027 failed authentication due to 1 account restriction(s)" } ], "messages": [ "This account is marked as \u0022inactive\u0022" ], "resource_body": null }2Views0likes0CommentsCisco: Meraki API v115 Py3 PowerPack Release Notification
We are pleased to announce that the Cisco: Meraki API v115 Py3 PowerPack has been released. The download for this release can be found on the Support Portal under the PowerPack filename: https://support.sciencelogic.com/s/release-version/aBu0z000000XZRPCA4/cisco-meraki-api Enhancements and Issues Addressed The following enhancements and addressed issues are included in this release: Added a universal credential and guided discovery workflow to the PowerPack. The universal credential includes configuration options for SSL certificate verification, proxy configuration, and selective discovery. For more information on configuring a Cisco Meraki universal credential, see the "Creating a Universal Credential for Cisco Meraki" section in the Cisco: Meraki [API] PowerPack manual. Added support for SSL certificate verification to the SOAP/XML and universal credential types. Added support for selective API endpoint collection to the SOAP/XML credential type, which allows you to define specific API endpoints to exclude from collection. For more information on configuring selective API endpoint collection, see the "Creating a SOAP/XML Credential for Cisco Meraki" section in the Cisco: Meraki [API] PowerPack manual. Added new fields to the universal credential type to enable retry override capability: Maximum number of retries Time between retries NOTE: These credential headers and fields should only be changed for troubleshooting purposes. Changing these values can cause collections to take longer to run, which could result in missing data or early termination (sigterm). Updated the names of the example credentials in the PowerPack to the following: Cisco: Meraki - API Basic Example Cisco: Meraki - API Example (Selective) Cisco: Meraki - API Proxy Example Cisco: Meraki - API Example Removed the "Discovery" collection object from the "Cisco: Meraki Organization Discovery [API]" Dynamic Application. Added the new "Cisco: Meraki Wireless Stats [API]" Dynamic Application, which allows you to collect information for wireless Cisco Meraki devices. NOTE: This Dynamic Application is disabled by default, and must be manually aligned to Cisco Meraki devices. For information about configuring the "Cisco: Meraki Wireless Stats [API]" Dynamic Application, see the Cisco: Meraki [API] manual. Added the new "Cisco: Meraki AP Utilization Performance [API]" Dynamic Application, which you can use to collect information on wireless access point (WAP) type devices. NOTE: This Dynamic Application is disabled by default. For information about configuring the "Cisco: Meraki AP Utilization Performance [API]" Dynamic Application, see the Cisco: Meraki [API] manual. Updated the "Cisco: Meraki Device Discovery [API]" Dynamic Application so that a device's MAC address is assigned as the device name instead of its serial number when no name is assigned. If you want to update the name of the device manually, you must disable the "Preserve Hostname" option on the device. Updated the alert formulas for both alerts in the "Cisco: Meraki Uplink Status [API]" Dynamic Application so that alerts and events are only generated when the status changes from "Active/Ready" to "Disabled/Not Connected". Updated the "Cisco: Meraki Uplink Performance [API]" Dynamic Application to index data by destination IP, which addresses issues with multiple IP configurations in Cisco Meraki. As part of the updates, the alert names for the "Cisco: Meraki Uplink Performance [API]" have been updated to reflect accurate conditions and include the specific IP. Added three new collection objects to the "Cisco: Meraki Request Manager [API]" Dynamic Application to display information on skipped endpoints. Added the new "Cisco: Meraki [API] Py3" Execution Environment, which is compatible with Python 3. NOTE: ScienceLogic recommends removing the "Cisco: Meraki [API]" execution environment after upgrading to version 115 of the PowerPack. Added logging for the "Cisco: Meraki Org Write [API]" run book action policy and included the run book action status in the "Event Log Action" entry for the run book action policy. Addressed an issue with the "Cisco: Meraki Uplink Usage Performance [API]" Dynamic Application that caused incorrect percentages to display for the "Uplink - Download Utilization Percent" and "Uplink - Upload Utilization Percent" presentation objects.

Hello, We are pleased to announce the Restorepoint 5.6 20250618 release, which was pushed to Restorepoint appliances today. This release contains the following updates: Added the following options to the Request Settings pane (Administration > System Settings > Security tab) to allow you to configure the maximum body size for requests. These new option enhance system security: Max body size (in MB)- Sets the maximum requests for body size for all requests. Max file size (in MB)- Sets the maximum file size for requests that upload files. Updated the Alerts settings on the Logs/Alerts tab so the Email From field value is always prefixed with the "no-reply" username to ensure that users can only alter the domain name that Restorepoint will use to send email. Updated the Security page (Administration > System Settings > Security tab) to include the SSH Keys pane so you can upload or generate new appliance SSH keys. Added the following plugin updates in the Restorepoint user interface: Device details now show default plugin options if those options appear in the DefaultData for a plugin. Device configuration types (Devices > Edit Device > Configurations) that are configured as defaults in the plugin now appear with a preselected checkbox. The default Backup Port field on the Connection tab (Devices > Edit Device > Connection) uses the default port for the plugin unless it does not exist. If the default port does not exist, you can use the default port value for the protocol, which is shown as a placeholder when the Backup Port field is empty. (Case: 00517698) Updated the Create Agent API to include an Address field. Updated the Global Search user interface so the default value for the LimitVersion field displays "Last Version". This update also applies to the LimitVersion drop-down menu and the default "Last Version" is displayed when the LimitVersions field is omitted in the API. Addressed an issue that caused an error message to appear when users with limited access opened the View Device Configuration page.
