REST API 503 errors
Hello everyone We have been using various PowerShell scripts for years and have never had any problems with them. Now, since last week Monday, we are getting random 503 “server is busy” HTTP errors on some GET queries such as Devices, Device DataSources, Dashboards, etc. There is no recognizable pattern to the errors. Does this problem also occur for others using script automation via the REST API (occurs in V2 and V3)? I have submitted a support request to LM, but progress is slow... Have a nice day everyone Dorian

REST API Device SLA Widget
Hi Portal I am currently automating our SLA reporting and have come across the following issue. When I create a device SLA widget via REST API, I do not have the option "displayPercentageBar". When I make an Inspect in Chrome, for example, I see this setting: However, when I set it via REST API, nothing happens. Has anyone ever had to deal with this? Greetings Dorian

Using Postman to create multiple Websites via API & CSV?
Hi, I’m testing out creating websites (or resources) via the API. I have a standard Post working in Postman just fine. However, when I then try to do the same thing via a CSV file in the Runner section, I’m getting 401 Authorization errors. When I look at the data that’s being sent, it looks the same as what’s sent when I run it manually. Is there something special I need to do when running a Post command via the Runner vs the manual Send command? Thanks.

Trouble Authenticating to LogicMonitor REST API from ServiceNow
I am trying to convert a PowerShell script to run from ServiceNow and found “Using REST API from ServiceNow Scripting” from two years ago. Since then, ServiceNow has addedGlideDigest() which, among other things, should allow me to create a message digest from a string using the SHA256 algorithm, with the result being a Base64 string. However, I am getting back: "{"errorMessage":"Authentication failed","errorCode":1401,"errorDetail":null}" The PowerShell script looks like this: [string]$sandboxaccessid = 'abc' [securestring]$sandboxaccesskey = '123' | ConvertTo-SecureString -AsPlainText -Force [string]$AccountName = 'portalname' [int]$Id = 2 $httpVerb = "GET" $resourcePath = "/device/devices/$id" $AllProtocols = [System.Net.SecurityProtocolType]'Tls11,Tls12' [System.Net.ServicePointManager]::SecurityProtocol = $AllProtocols $time = (Get-Date).ToUniversalTime() $epoch = [Math]::Round((New-TimeSpan -Start (Get-Date -Date "1/1/1970") -End $time).TotalMilliseconds) $requestVars = $httpVerb + $epoch + $resourcePath $hmac = New-Object System.Security.Cryptography.HMACSHA256 $hmac.Key = [Text.Encoding]::UTF8.GetBytes([System.Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal]::PtrToStringAuto(([System.Runtime.InteropServices.Marshal]::SecureStringToBSTR($sandboxaccesskey)))) $signatureBytes = $hmac.ComputeHash([Text.Encoding]::UTF8.GetBytes($requestVars)) $signatureHex = [System.BitConverter]::ToString($signatureBytes) -replace '-' $signature = [System.Convert]::ToBase64String([System.Text.Encoding]::UTF8.GetBytes($signatureHex.ToLower())) $headers = @{ "Authorization" = "LMv1 $sandboxaccessid`:$signature`:$epoch" "Content-Type" = "application/json" "X-Version" = 3 } $url = "https://$AccountName.logicmonitor.com/santaba/rest$resourcePath" $response = Invoke-RestMethod -Uri $url -Method $httpVerb -Header $headers -ErrorAction Stop $resposne And JavaScript looks like this (at the moment): var ACCESS_ID = 'abc'; var ACCESS_KEY = '123'; var ACCOUNT_NAME = 'portalname'; var resourcePath = '/device/devices'; var time = new Date().getTime(); var epoch = Math.round((time - new Date("1/1/1970").getTime())); var id = 2; var requestVars = 'GET' + epoch + resourcePath; // Compute the HMACSHA256 hash using GlideDigest var gd = new GlideDigest(); var signature = gd.getSHA256Base64(ACCESS_KEY, requestVars); // Remove hyphens from the signature signature = signature.replace(/-/g, ''); var token = 'LMv1 ' + ACCESS_ID + ':' + signature + ':' + epoch; var httpRequest = new GlideHTTPRequest('https://' + ACCOUNT_NAME + '.logicmonitor.com/santaba/rest/device/devices/' + id); httpRequest.addHeader('Content-Type', 'application/json'); httpRequest.addHeader('Authorization', token); httpRequest.addHeader('X-Version', '3'); var response = httpRequest.get(); gs.info('Response status code: ' + response.getStatusCode()); gs.info('Devices = ' + response.body); Anyone know how to make this authentication work, without the customerconvertByteArrayToHex() utility?

Windows Services Monitoring with quite a bit more Automation applied
So today we use LM's Microsoft Windows ServicesDataSource to monitor Windows Services. This DS uses Groovy Script and WMI calls under the hood to fetch the service metrics like state, start mode, status, etc... Everything works fine but one of the prerequisites is to go and manually populate the list of Windows services which then the DS parses out as a WILDVALUE variable in the script. You know, go to the device, click on Down Arrow (Manage Resource Options) --> Add Additional Monitoring --> and CHOOSE from the list of Windows Services. Rinse and Repeat and Save. Then the DS goes to work. Well, what if you have a list of over 100 Windows Services you need to add to let's say 20 Windows devices? That would take forever to populate that list manually... That's a problem number 1. Scratch that. This is not really a problem since one can run a PowerShell script (or Groovy Script) to perform this task using undocumented - but working very well - LM API calls. That problem is solved. Next - This list of over 100 Services needs to be *refreshed* every let's say 24 hours to remove nonexistent services and add new ones based on the Regex filter. That's a problem number 2. And again, one can do it programmatically running API calls but this is where I am trying to figure out how to do it. Run my script as a custom PropertySource? I am not really writing Resource Properties, I am updating instance list (Windows Services) within Additional Monitoring on bunch of Resources. Plus PropertySources are applied when ActiveDiscovery is run which is what, every 24 hours? Or should I write custom DataSource that would accomplish this refresh and specify 1 day collection period? Thanks.

Why can't Administrators create API Tokens?
It makes no sense that Administrators cannot themselves create API Tokens (e.g for new API-only users in a read-only role). I have to either: Ask someone to demote my account (e.g. to the “manager” role) Create the API Token Ask them to promote my account back to the administrator role OR Create myself a second identity (which is contrary to our security policy). OR Create an API Token creation tool to bypass this nonsense.

Creating a propertySource to populate a NOC widget in a dashboard... need ## in a string.
The NOC widget items have a field that requires me to have the string"##RESOURCEGROUP##" pushed through the JSON into the NOC Item…since I’m using a propertySource to run the script on a schedule (I have a larger VM with a collector with a longer script timeout just for doing deeper scripted work through the API or Full Domain sweep types of things that will take more time), The LM System is going to try to replace that at run time rather than returning the explicit string. Who knows the correct escape sequence for turning that into a string literal on its way into the RestApi Patch? Scripting questions through support is best effort, and I don’t usually come with easy questions.
