What is the syntax/how do I mute an Interface via Orion API?

hjarriell

We have a script to mute Nodes via node custom property, but when we try to setup a similar process to mute an interface, it gives an error.  Does anyone know what the syntax is to mute an interface via API?

Looking at the Alert Suppression table, interfaces require both the nodeID and the interfaceID, but when we match the formatting of already muted interfaces, we get an error that implies it doesn't understand the URI....

PS C:\Users\me> $EndResults
swis://ORION.ExampleDom.com/Orion/Orion.Nodes/NodeID=15365/Interfaces/InterfaceID=66709

PS C:\Users\me> $Start = [datetime]::Today.AddHours(12); $End = [datetime]::Today.AddHours(15)

PS C:\Users\me> Invoke-SwisVerb $swis Orion.AlertSuppression SuppressAlerts @($EndResults, $Start, $End ) | Out-Null

I believe you need to stick endresults in an array

$endresults = @($endresults) or something probably works

You might get an error later about the date format

Havnt opened PS to test.
