SHOW-USERS CALL API result empty

yoan — Mon, 08 Jul 2024 10:04:21 GMT

Hello,

I'm having some issues with the show-users API call, which returns an empty result, whereas show-domains works fine.

Here's my code:

- name: "[MDS] Send POST request to Check Point API for login" ansible.builtin.uri: url: "https://mdshost.test.local/web_api/login" method: "POST" headers: Content-Type: "application/json" body_format: json body: user: "admin" password: "wwwwwww" validate_certs: false register: _login_query_response failed_when: false delegate_to: localhost - name: "[MDS] Set the session ID for subsequent API calls" set_fact: _mds_sid: "{{ _login_query_response.json.sid }}" _mds_url: "{{ _login_query_response.json.url }}" when: _login_query_response.json != {} - name: "Send POST request to check If domains" ansible.builtin.uri: url: "{{ _mds_url }}/show-domains" method: "POST" headers: Content-Type: "application/json" X-chkp-sid: "{{ _mds_sid }} " body_format: json body: details-level: standard validate_certs: false status_code: 200 ignore_errors: true register: _show_domain_response - name: "Send POST request to check If users" ansible.builtin.uri: url: "{{ _mds_url }}/show-users" method: "POST" headers: Content-Type: "application/json" X-chkp-sid: "{{ _mds_sid }} " body_format: json body: details-level: full validate_certs: false status_code: 200 ignore_errors: true register: _show_users_response

Here's the output when i use ansible-playbook -vvv:

ok: [test] => { "changed": false, "connection": "close", "content_type": "application/json", "cookies": {}, "cookies_string": "", "date": "Mon, 08 Jul 2024 09:36:20 GMT", "elapsed": 0, "invocation": { "module_args": { "attributes": null, "body": { "details-level": "full" }, "body_format": "json", "ca_path": null, "client_cert": null, "client_key": null, "creates": null, "dest": null, "follow_redirects": "safe", "force": false, "force_basic_auth": false, "group": null, "headers": { "Content-Type": "application/json", "X-chkp-sid": "gergreggrgegrgegr" }, "http_agent": "ansible-httpget", "method": "POST", "mode": null, "owner": null, "remote_src": false, "removes": null, "return_content": false, "selevel": null, "serole": null, "setype": null, "seuser": null, "src": null, "status_code": [ 200 ], "timeout": 30, "unix_socket": null, "unredirected_headers": [], "unsafe_writes": false, "url": "https://gergergreg:443/web_api/show-users", "url_password": null, "url_username": null, "use_gssapi": false, "use_proxy": true, "validate_certs": false } }, "json": { "objects": [], "total": 0 }, "msg": "OK (unknown bytes)", "redirected": false, "server": "Jetty(9.2.9.v20150224)", "status": 200, "strict_transport_security": "max-age=31536000; includeSubDomains", "transfer_encoding": "chunked", "url": "https://gerger:443/web_api/show-users", "x_forwarded_host_port": "443", "x_frame_options": "SAMEORIGIN", "x_ua_compatible": "IE=EmulateIE8" }

Did I make an error in my code?

Please try making the API call directly (without Ansible).
mgmt_cli -r true show users

The command @PhoneBoy gave you worked for me. I tested in 2 labs, R81.20 and R82, no problem.
