Examples
This example demonstrates how to run queries and slicers (parameters) programmatically to extract results.
The example uses API authentication driven from JavaScript. See Authentication APIs for alternatives.
// URL of the Pyramid installation and the path to the API 3.0 REST methods
var pyramidURL = "http://mysite.com/api3/";
// step 1: authenticate admin account and get token
// NOTE: callApi method is a generic REST method shown below.
let token = callApi("authentication/authenticateUser",{
"userName":"adminUser",
"password":"abc123!"
},"",false);
//step 2: get default tenant
let defaultTenantResult = callApi("access/getDefaultTenant","",token);
let tenantId = defaultTenantResult;
//step 3A: add a new profile called "Consumers" using the numeric approach
// build the numeric value by summing the bit switches for each item needed.
// assume we want to have advanced (9) and discovery (3) choices on
let bitNum = (2^3) + (2^9)
let saveProfile= callApi("access/addProProfile",{
"name":"Consumers",
"description":"Basic tools for consumer user types",
"permissions":{"numeric":bitNum},
"tenantId":tenantId
},token);
let profileId = saveProfile.modifiedList[0].id
//step 3B: add a new profile called "Consumers" using the array approach
// assume we want to have advanced (9) and discovery (3) choices on
let saveProfile2= callApi("access/addProProfile",{
"name":"Consumers",
"description":"Basic tools for consumer user types",
"permissions":{"permissionBitIndexList":[9,3]},
"tenantId":tenantId
},token);
let profileId = saveProfile2.modifiedList[0].id
//step 4: creating roles
let createRole=callApi("access/createRoles",[{
"roleName": "prole1",
"tenantId": tenantId,
"isGroupRole": false
},{
"roleName": "prole2",
"tenantId": tenantId,
"isGroupRole": false
}],token);
let role1 = createRole.modifiedList[0].id;
let role2 = createRole.modifiedList[1].id;
log("created roles "+role1+","+role2);
//step 5: bind new profile to role1
let updateRolesByProfileId=callApi("access/updateRoleProfiles",{
"profileId":profileId,
"rolesToAdd":[role1],
"rolesToRemove":[]
},token);
//step 6: retrieve all roles with a given profile
let allProfileRoles= callApi("access/getRolesbyProfile",profileId,token);
//step 7: delete the profile
let deleteProfile= callApi("access/deleteProfile",profileId,token);
// ##### optional generic logging method for debugging ##############
function log(msg){
document.write(msg);
console.log(msg);
}
// ##### generic REST API calling method ##############
function callApi(path,data,token="",parseResult=true){
var xhttp = new XMLHttpRequest();
xhttp.open("POST", pyramidURL+path, false);
xhttp.setRequestHeader("paToken",token)
xhttp.send(JSON.stringify(data));
if(parseResult){
return JSON.parse(xhttp.responseText);
}else{
return xhttp.responseText;
}
}
Code Snippets
Use the Authentication API methods to generate an access 'key' or 'token' for use in code as shown below.
curl -X POST \
-H "paToken: [[apiKey]]" \
-H "Accept: application/json,application/json;charset=utf-8,text/plain,text/plain;charset=utf-8" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
"http://Your.Server.URL/API3/access/addViewerProfile" \
-d '{
"permissions" : {
"permissionBitIndexList" : [ null, null ],
"numeric" : 0
},
"profileId" : "profileId",
"name" : "name",
"tenantId" : "tenantId",
"description" : "description"
}'
