Solved: Check Point mgmt api SDK - cme api, wrong method s...

Nüüül · ‎2023-05-13

Hello,

possibly a dump question - when trying to set ("cme-api/v1/management"), i get an error that "wrong method has been used".

according to the documentation a PUT method has to be used, afaik cpapi uses POST. Is there a possibility to let the sdk use the PUT method? I was not able to find some informations regarding this.

any ideas?

(as a workaround, i am sending a task with cli commands but that´s ... )

Thanks,

Daniel

Hi @Nüüül ,

We updated the SDK to use all HTTP methods. Please pull the new code from GitHub.

Curious why it is not acceptable to use a POST method here, assuming it works?
This might be a documentation bug.

Also, what version/JHF is running on the management?

Have you tried to use CME API documentation? https://app.swaggerhub.com/apis-docs/Check-Point/cme-api/v1

Can you share full command and output?

Kind regards, Amir Senn

Regarding the Documentation you sent (and i already checked 🙂 ) the management config of cme is to be sent via PUT method.

My script does:

....
cme_init= {
    'management':
        {'name' : cme_mgmtname}
}
....
client.api_call("cme-api/v1/management", cme_init['management'])
.....

After that i am sending other commands to cme-api for configuring account and gateway, those are working... (regarding documentation, POST is used there)

Hi @Nüüül,

RnD are testing the issue, I will keep this thread updated with our findings.

Thanks,

Hi @Nüüül ,

Currently, the SDK only supports the POST method.
We are working on adding support for the PUT method to the SDK. We will keep you updated on our progress.
