SwisClient methods (invoke, update)

FormerMember over 7 years ago

Are there any examples showing how to update tables? I'm simply trying to push comments or notes inside the Orion.AlertObjects.AlertNotes field. I see in that table a relationship with (Orion.AlertActive) that has a verb 'AppendNote' I can invoke. If I have the syntax right:

AppendNote ( alertObjectIds(System.Int32[], note(System.String))

I attempt in python:

aliases = swis.invoke('Orion.AlertActive', 'AppendNote ', '6220','TEST') # I just hardcoded alertObjectId that I know exists and string I want to add

print(aliases)

But I get:

Traceback (most recent call last):

File "./check.py", line 67, in <module>

aliases = swis.invoke('Orion.AlertActive', 'AppendNote ', '6220','TEST')

File "C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\orionsdk\swisclient.py", line 29, in invoke

"Invoke/{}/{}".format(entity, verb), args).json()

File "C:\Python27\lib\site-packages\orionsdk\swisclient.py", line 59, in _req

raise HTTPError(http_error_msg, response=self)

requests.exceptions.HTTPError: 400 Client Error: Verb Orion.AlertActive.AppendNote : Not found for url: solarwinds-orion:17778/.../Info

rmationService/v3/Json/Invoke/Orion.AlertActive/AppendNote%20

What am I missing??

UPDATE: I resolved my issue as my syntax was incorrect. I had an extra space in the verb name field and also did not make the AlertObjectID a python list:
aliases = swis.invoke('Orion.AlertActive', 'AppendNote ', '6220','TEST')     << remove extra space in 'AppendNote' and '6220' needs to be inside a python list
CORRECT SYNTAX for AppendNote verb or the one that worked for me:
        SWIS.INVOKE ( 'TABLENAME' ,   'VERBNAME' ,   PYTHON LIST[int],    'TEXT NOTES WHATEVER'   )
aliases = swis.invoke('Orion.AlertActive', 'AppendNote', value,'TEST')
code snippet:
value = alertd['AlertObjectID']
to:
value = []
value.append(alertd['AlertObjectID'])
aliases = swis.invoke('Orion.AlertActive', 'AppendNote', value,'TEST')     << < AlertObjectID integer is now in python list
