Parameter access-rulebase API

jkieffer — Tue, 19 Mar 2019 16:05:37 GMT

Hello,

I am currently trying to extract the rulebase with hits for every rule with the command :

show access-rulebase name "Network" details-level "standard" use-object-dictionary true show-hits true hits-settings.from-date "2019-01-01" hits-settings.to-date "2019-03-06" hits-settings.target "CheckPoint-Lab" --format json

But I have an error :

{
"code" : "generic_err_object_not_found",
"message" : "Requested object [Network] not found"
}

Do you know where I can find the "name" parameter that is needed for this command as it seems not to be the "Network" as default ?

Best Regards,

Joris KIEFFER

show access rulebase needs the layer name as the name parameter. If it is not unique, supply package name plus layer name.

For example:

#mgmt_cli show access-rulebase name "Standard Network"

Hello,

I succeeded launch the command and have the information that I want.

But other than using the RestAPI method is there a way to retrieve the result of an API call done on the CLI ?

Best Regards,

As @Joshua_Hatter showed in his answer, you can use mgmt_cli to access the REST API. You can also make calls pretty easily using curl as well. Several examples can be found on the CheckMates community.
