API ingest from UltraDNS into Logic Monitor

Did you 

import com.santaba.agent.groovyapi.http.*;

at the beginning of your script? Looks like it doesn't like that you're trying to create an "HTTP.open()" object without importing that library. Is the above code the entirety of your script?

Ok I fixed that but now I'm getting an auth error. I verified my user name and password and those both work, but I believe that Ultra is looking for a bearer token to pass to it as part of the auth process. 

This is what I have to pass into Ultra as part of my auth process. This is my POST to them.  

"refresh_token": "xxxxxxxx",
    "access_token": "xxxxxxxxx",

Info obscured for security reasons. 

Alright, it make sense for them not to allow basic authentication on their api (basic auth means username & password). You'll need to see if they have any details of how to authenticate with their API. Like, what needs to be in the headers, besides what you already have.

Stuart,

in my GET from them, I am passing a bearer token along with the param for our account name. Here's how I've updated my script:

import com.santaba.agent.groovyapi.http.*;

// instantiate an http client object for the target system
ip="api.ultradns.com"
httpClient = HTTP.open(ip, 443);

user = hostProps.get("ultradns.user");
pass = hostProps.get("ultradns.pass");
account = hostProps.get("ultradns.accountName");

// use an authentication API call to initiate a session
// specify the url to which we want to post
url = "https://"+ip+"/authorization/token";
def payload = '{"username":"myusername","typeId":"com.tintri.api.rest.vcommon.dto.rbac.RestApiCredentials","password":"mypassword"}';
 
// do the post
def postResponse = httpClient.post(url, payload,["Content-Type":"application/json"]);
// does the response indicate a successful authentication?
if ( !(httpClient.getStatusCode() =~ /200/) ) 
{
    // no -- report an error, and return a non-zero exit code
    println "authentication failure";
    return(1);
}
// we are now authenticated. Subsequent GETs with the httpClient will pass in the session cookie 
url="https://"+ip+"/reports/dns/usage_summary";
def getResponse=httpClient.get(url);
// print some data
println httpClient.getResponseBody();

shouldn't the payload look like this?

def payload = '{"username":user,"typeId":"com.tintri.api.rest.vcommon.dto.rbac.RestApiCredentials","password":pass}';

I tried that with that same auth failure. 

Are you running this in the Collector debug? If so, you can add a println statement after you define the payload to output it to make sure that everything is set properly in the payload.

No because this isn't a collector. I've reviewed the documentation on how to set up a collector for debug purposes and in this case, it may not apply to what I'm trying to do. 

Without a Collector, you won't be able to poll the data from UltraDNS into LogicMonitor. It's where this script should be running. The hostProps.get() method won't run on anything that's not a Collector. You want to be designing this script to run on the Collector so that you can get the data into LM and alert on it. Wasn't that the goal?

Your payload should probably actually look like this: 

"parameter=value&also=another"

With your keys and values substituted, of course.
