Parameters for Verbs documented for SDK

cshanep over 11 years ago

I am trying to use the verbs documented for the sdk using swisinvoke, but am getting something 'cannot unpackage parameter 6', or 'requires 7 parameters not 0'. Does anyone know where I can get a list of parameters and types to the verbs mentioned in the documentation.

Any help is appreciated!

We are working on improvements in documenting verb argument types. Unfortunately, this feature is not ready yet.
However, which verbs you are trying to use?

Right now I am working with CreateContainer, but would eventually like more information on all of them.
Thanks,

Does anyone have parameter documentation on CreateContainer? I have passed all sorts of data to it and am not able to get anything to work. I keep getting 'cannot unpackage parameter' on anything I try.

You are in luck! We just posted SDK 1.5, which has a sample PowerShell script for doing various group manipulations, including calling CreateContainer. You can download it from http://downloads.solarwinds.com/solarwinds/Release/Orion/OrionSDK-v1.5.zip.

Tim,
That helped a ton! The only thing I had trouble with, but I managed to figure out was adding containers as a member to another container.

Glad you got it figured out. I made a note for us to add a sample for that to the next SDK release.

Tim,
Is there any chance you have documentation on setting up dependencies?

Currently, there is no API for manipulation with dependencies exposed in SWIS.

Hi Shane
Would you mind sharing your code for the creation of Groups?
I am keen to see this, especially the ability to create the groups with sub groups.
many thanks
Mark

Have dependencies been added yet, or is there any update on when we might see this included?
