How can I view storage consumption per organization

[Shagma]

Per this posts subject. I need to know how much storage each organization consumes. The Storage Consumption report just shows a number for all organizations combined.

Hi Shagma,

I've passed your question to the responsible team, will share the information later. Thanks!

[benyoung]

Hi Shagma, this is actually a duplicate from another Service provider forum which you may not have access too but you can use the API to get this information out

This will get you all organisations
https://<Backup-Office365>:4443/v3/Organizations

Then you can enumerate each of them and hit up the following to get the used repositories endpoint
https://<Backup-Office365>:4443/v3/Organizations/{id}/UsedRepositories

This will return you a payload containing UsedSpaceBytes which you can see the usage

All the docs are here (how to connect and other endpoints)

BenYoung, thanks for the update!

@shagma? Are you a registered VSCP? Also, if you create the report in CSV you can get the raw data out of there per tenant (per repository)

[Shagma]

I'm trying to download the Organizations file, but it won't let med download. I get an error message:
<Error>
<Message>Authorization has been denied for this request.</Message>
</Error>

Why does our VSCP status matter in this regard?. Our ID is PRA-015937

[Mike Resseler]

If you are a VSCP then you can apply for the dedicated service provider forums.

To apply for the VCSP forum, go into the User Control Panel of this forum, select User Groups in the tabs, select "Veeam Cloud Service Provider” and finally the “Join selected” option. As soon as your email address is verified to be part of the Service Provider domain, your application will be approved.

For your error. It seems that your authorization ticket isn't following your requests. Did you got the authorization first and then followed by your queries?

[nielsengelen]

You need to authenticate first via /v3/token. Afterwards use that token against the api calls and it will result in the outcome.

[benyoung]

Hey Shagma,

If you POST to /v3/token as mentioned you will get a bearer token back, example below;

POST https://youroffice365server:4443/v3/token HTTP/1.1
Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded

username=administrator&password=SuperSecure123&grant_type=password

This will return

HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Cache-Control: no-cache
Pragma: no-cache
Content-Length: 1267
Content-Type: application/json;charset=UTF-8
Expires: -1
Server: Microsoft-HTTPAPI/2.0
Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *
Date: Tue, 21 May 2019 03:37:45 GMT

{"access_token":"AQAAANCMnd8BFdERjHoAwE..... have removed the rest of it, it's really long...","token_type":"bearer","expires_in":3599,"refresh_token":"refresh token here........ (its reallly long so have remove it)",".issued":"Tue, 21 May 2019 03:37:45 GMT",".expires":"Tue, 21 May 2019 04:37:45 GMT"}

You can then use that access token value for subsequent requests like the below in the authorization header, just remember to put "Bearer" before your value

GET https://youroffice365server:4443/v3/proxies HTTP/1.1
Authorization: Bearer AQAAANCMnd8BFdERjHoAwE....and the rest of it


returns you... (but you can hit up or organisations endpoints to get the consumption)

HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Content-Length: 1967
Content-Type: application/json; charset=utf-8
Server: Microsoft-HTTPAPI/2.0
Date: Tue, 21 May 2019 03:37:45 GMT

I wrote a series of RESTful api blog posts a while ago which may help in how it works: http://foonet.be/2019/04/01/veeam-backu ... -settings/.

It is the last post in the series but at the bottom u can find all of them.

[benyoung]

Nice writeup that would have been handy a few weeks ago if i had know about it

[Mike Resseler]

@BenYoung... Niels is a guy you want to keep an eye on when you work with REST for VBO. You should checkout his portal that he built on github

[DeanCTS]

You need to backup each organization to its own backup repository.

[Mike Resseler]

@DeanCTS Correct. That is also the way to go as a service provider to keep data separated from different tenants
