API Server Setup

How to Configure API Server
API Server enables on-premises local access to the IT-Conductor API interface. The Gateway(s) must be configured to act as an API Server.
1. In the IT-Conductor main menu, navigate to Dashboards > Administrator.
Figure 1: IT-Conductor Dashboard Menu
2.) Click the Gateway you would like to configure to show the metric object menu. Then, click Modify.

3.) Check the API Server checkbox and specify the API Server Port value. Then, click the "Save" icon.
Note: Ensure the port is available for listening and is not blocked by the local firewall.

Within several minutes the Gateway will start the API server.
Usage
The IT-Conductor Gateway on Windows includes a client program that can interact with the API server.
The "ITCAPIClient.exe" program can be found in the Gateway installation folder "C:\Program Files\IT-Conductor\Agent\bin" and can be copied to another folder or another Windows computer. There are no external dependencies except Windows .Net Framework 4.5.
The program usages are as the following:
C:\Program Files\IT-Conductor\Agent\bin>ITCAPIClient.exe
Usage: -server <host>:<port> -class <Class> <options>
        Options:
        When -class Notify specified:
                [-ACTIVITY_QueueId <Person ID>|<Group ID>|<Role ID>]
                [-NOTIFY_TargetClass Person|Group|Role|Customer] : ignored if ACTIVITY_QueueId is specified
                [-NOTIFY_TargetAttrName PERSON_LoginName|OBJECT_Name] : ignored if ACTIVITY_QueueId is specified
                [-NOTIFY_TargetAttrValue <Person Login>|<Group Name>|<Role Name>] : ignored if ACTIVITY_QueueId is specified
                -NOTIFY_Subject <subject>
                -NOTIFY_MessageLong <message>
        When -class <other> specified:
                Not documented
The sample below will create an IT-Conductor Notification for the IT-Conductor user identified by e-mail "[email protected]". The Notification will send e-mail(s) based on the person's notification schedule.
ITCAPIClient ozraid01:8881 -class Notify -NOTIFY_TargetClass Person -NOTIFY_TargetAttrName PERSON_LoginName -NOTIFY_TargetAttrValue [email protected] -NOTIFY_Subject "Test Message" -NOTIFY_MessageLong "This is a test message sent via API Server"
The sample below will create IT-Conductor Notification for the IT-Conductor group BasisAdmins. The Notification will send e-mail(s) to all group members based on their notification schedules.
ITCAPIClient ozraid01:8881 -class Notify -NOTIFY_TargetClass Group -NOTIFY_TargetAttrName OBJECT_Name -NOTIFY_TargetAttrValue BasisAdmins -NOTIFY_Subject "Test Message" -NOTIFY_MessageLong "This is a test message sent via API Server"
The IT-Conductor Gateway on Linux does not include a client program however it is possible to use wget in a similar manner:
wget http://<host>:<port>/<Class>?<options>
Options:
        When Class Notify specified:
                [ACTIVITY_QueueId=<Person ID>|<Group ID>|<Role ID>&]
                [NOTIFY_TargetClass=Person|Group|Role|Customer&] : ignored if ACTIVITY_QueueId is specified
                [NOTIFY_TargetAttrName=PERSON_LoginName|OBJECT_Name&] : ignored if ACTIVITY_QueueId is specified
                [NOTIFY_TargetAttrValue=<Person Login>|<Group Name>|<Role Name>&] : ignored if ACTIVITY_QueueId is specified
                NOTIFY_Subject=<subject>&
                NOTIFY_MessageLong=<message>&
        When other classes specified:
                Not documented
For example:
wget http://ozraid01:8881/Notify?NOTIFY_TargetClass=Person&NOTIFY_TargetAttrName=PERSON_LoginName&[email protected]&NOTIFY_Subject=Test Message&NOTIFY_MessageLong=This is a test message sent via API Server
This notation can also be used from any web browser for testing purposes.
