Using Curl for GET HTTPS results on Veeam One

[Renan Oliveira]

Hi all,

I'm trying to use the REST API from Veeam one for get some informations. Below the command that I'm using with the result.

Code: Select all

C:\Users\feihgl6>curl -i -k -X GET https://10.132.17.105:1239/api/v1.0/about
HTTP/1.1 401 Unauthorized
Server:

I´m using this reference: https://helpcenter.veeam.com/docs/one/r ... #tag/About

Where I get this API_KEY? 'Authorization: YOUR_API_KEY_HERE'

Hello Renan,

It seems to me that you need to authenticate first and get a token from /api/token
Then apply this token as a bearer and curl would look like that

The curl would look like that
curl -X 'GET' \
'https://rk-lab-oneb.n.local:1239/api/v2.1/about' \
-H 'accept: application/json' \
-H 'Authorization: bearer eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsImtpZC...

In swagger it would look like that


Thanks

Hello,
If you are trying to do more stuff with the API using curl, you can use the next script as starter, or orientation, it has how to obtain bearer, and how to query other things:
https://github.com/jorgedlcruz/veeam-on ... eam_one.sh

It is a bit old, but should work fine. Without this script, you will need to refresh token many times on the UI to come back to Curl, etc. Quite tricky.

Let us know

Hi all,

I get the Token.

Code: Select all

C:\Users\feihgl6>curl -k -X POST "https://vwbranddone03.sa.vwg:1239/api/token" -H  "accept: application/json" -H  "Authorization: NOPASS" -H  "Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded" -d "username=NOUSER&password=NOPASS&rememberMe=true&grant_type=password&refresh_token="

}

Now to get the status about, I use the command line bellow?

Code: Select all

C:\Users\feihgl6>curl -k -X GET 'https://10.132.17.105:1239/api/v2.1/about' -H 'accept: application/json' -H 'Authorization: bearer eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsImtpZCI6IldlYkFwaVNlY3VyaXR5S2V5IiwidHlwIjoiSldUIn0.eyJ1bmlxdWVfbmFtZSI6ImJydndiMDBcXGFlaWhnbDYiLCJyb2xlIjoiVGVuYW50IiwiaHR0cDovL3NjaGVtYXMueG1sc29hcC5vcmcvd3MvMjAwNS8wNS9pZGVudGl0eS9jbGFpbXMvc2lkIjoiUy0xLTUtMjEtMjA5NDUzOTcyMi02OTg0ODYxNjYtMTUyNDI0Nzk3Mi0yODU4MTIiLCJBY2Nlc3NUb2tlbklkIjoiNGQzZDRiNzgtNjhjYS00MjM4LWIwNDktYWRiMDRjMTliNjVhIiwiVXNlcklkIjoiMjAiLCJuYmYiOjE2OTA2NDQ1MDYsImV4cCI6MTY5MDY0NTQwNiwiaWF0IjoxNjkwNjQ0NTA2fQ.yk_SDEvrGy7Z6Dl9h0LyKziPg5Ij5fLkH93VhZJ0qtE'

I do the download the json file too.

Bellow the result from command:

Code: Select all

Hello Renan,

In the current release, there is no access to the Rest API for tenant accounts.
The account must be a member of the Veeam ONE Administrators, Veeam ONE Power Users or Veeam ONE Read-Only Users group. Some methods would not be accessible for the latest two groups.

Thanks

To what Roman mentioned, be careful next time sharing the first query to obtain the bearer, as you pasted your user/pass in plain text, I just edited removing it.
