Query Identity with Identity Awareness API got Internal Error

Yi_Dai — Tue, 26 Sep 2017 16:54:41 GMT

Hi,

I'm using Identity Web API to query identity of a given IP. The API is

POST https://<gateway-server>/_IA_API/v1.0/show-identity

It works fine when there is identity found with the IP. But I got 500 Internal error when there is no identity found.

According to the document, when no identity found, it should still receive 200 OK and {"ipv4-address" : "1.1.1.1","message" : "total 0 user records were found."}

It works when I do curl from command line, but in the https client, the response code is 500, there is no response body, but {"ipv4-address" : "1.1.1.1","message" : "total 0 user records were found."} was put as error message.

Same command and http client worked on R77.30, but R80.10 has this problem. Does any one know how to solve it?

Let's move this into Developers (Code Hub)‌

A 500 error for something that should return a 200 (and it's a pretty straightforward call) sounds like a possible bug.

I recommend engaging with the Check Point TAC: Contact Support | Check Point Software

Hi Yi,

Edited my reply following a further test I did:

Indeed it seems that in R80.10 we are returning HTTP 500 in this case, which is wrong.

It was fixed in our next future version, R80.20.

In case there is a need to port fix it to R80.10, our bug ID is IDA-198.

Thanks,

Royi.
