WebAPI calls? I have a powershell example

[BigDaddyO]

My company has dictated that I can no longer use KeePass command line to retrieve credentials for my automated testing and I'm to use secretserver from thycotic.

Secret Server is a web based application that can only be automated from a WebAPI.  I have never done this type of thing with AutoIT and I'm not sure where to start.

 

I have been sent the generic How-To get started link but it's all PowerShell:  https://thycotic.force.com/support/s/article/REST-API-PowerShell-Scripts-Getting-Started

How would I either:

a.  Convert the powershell script into AutoIT.  (This is what I would prefer)

or

b.  Launch the Powershell script from AutoIT and retrieve the values back into AutoIT.

 

Below are the examples from that website.

2 - Windows Authentication

$api = "http:// <secret server url>/api/v1"
$endpoint = "$api/secrets/3844"
$secret = Invoke-RestMethod $endpoint -UseDefaultCredentials

 

3 - Searching Secrets

try
{

    $api = "http:// <secret server url>/api/v1"
    $tokenRoute = "http:// <secret server url>/oauth2/token";

    $creds = @{
        username = "< user name >"
        password = "< password >"
        grant_type = "password"
    }  
   
    $token = ""

    $response = Invoke-RestMethod $tokenRoute -Method Post -Body $creds
    $token = $response.access_token;

    #Write-Host $token

    $headers = New-Object "System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary[[String],[String]]"
    $headers.Add("Authorization", "Bearer $token")

    $filters = "?filter.HeartbeatStatus=1&filter.includeRestricted=true&filter.searchtext=< mySearchText >"
  
    Write-Host "------------------------------"
    Write-Host "----- Secret Search Values -----"
    Write-Host "------------------------------"

    #?filter.searchfields=username&filter.searchfields=displayname&filter.searchfields=filter.searchText=mister&filter.includeinactive=true" -Headers $headers 

    $result = Invoke-RestMethod "$api/secrets$filters" -Headers $headers 

    Write-Host $result.filter.searchFields
    Write-Host $result.total

    foreach($secret1 in $result.records)
    { 
       Write-Host $secret1.id" - "$secret1.name" - "$secret1.folderId - $secret1.lastHeartBeatStatus
    }

    Write-Host "------------------------------"
    Write-Host "----- Secret Lookup Values -----"
    Write-Host "------------------------------"

    #?filter.searchfields=username&filter.searchfields=displayname&filter.searchfields=filter.searchText=mister&filter.includeinactive=true" -Headers $headers 

    $result = Invoke-RestMethod "$api/secrets/lookup$filters" -Headers $headers 

    Write-Host $result.filter.searchFields
    Write-Host $result.total

    foreach($secret in $result.records)
    { 
       Write-Host $secret.id" - "$secret.value
    }
    Write-Host "------------------------------"
}
catch [System.Net.WebException]
{
    Write-Host "----- Exception -----"
    Write-Host  $_.Exception
    Write-Host  $_.Exception.Response.StatusCode
    Write-Host  $_.Exception.Response.StatusDescription
    $result = $_.Exception.Response.GetResponseStream()
    $reader = New-Object System.IO.StreamReader($result)
    $reader.BaseStream.Position = 0
    $reader.DiscardBufferedData()
    $responseBody = $reader.ReadToEnd() | ConvertFrom-Json
    Write-Host  $responseBody.errorCode " - " $responseBody.message
    foreach($modelState in $responseBody.modelState)
    {
        $modelState
    }
}

 

 

 

Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

Hello. You can handle REST API using WinHttp UDF.

About second option there are many examples in forum about get powershell output. do a forum search.
