Runtime Real Time Status

[PasqualeFimiani]

Hi all,
i'm trying to create a script for realtime monitoring of runtime status.

I've found a very useful command:

http://localhost:8181/status that display the information needed, but it works only in localhost host. If I use the IP address (of the same machine or another one in same subnet), I receive this error:

USER NOT SET.

I've tried to pass user and pwd as I've found on some BP document:

http://localhost:8181/user=%20user&password=%20pwd&status

but I receive: authentication failed (I'm sure that user and pwd are OK) and the USER NOT SET

Any help will be very appreciate.

Hi,
thank for your reply. I've tried and a receive these messages:

- http://[machine]:[port]/user name [username] -> USER SET
- http://[machine]:[port]/password [password] -> AUTHENTICATION FAILED (I'm logged via remote desktop with these credential)
- http://[machine]:[port]/status -> USER NOT SET

Do I have to use specific credential?

Thanks,
pasquale

Hi,

sorry to be not specific enough. In brackets [] you should use your own values so:
instead of [machine] you should use localhost or specific machine name
instead of [username] and [password] there your real username and password should go. the user must have a rights to connect to Blue Prism

Also you can allays use
http://localhost:8181/help
which shows all the commands available and for more detailed info for each command use
http://localhost:8181/help [command]
where [command] might be one of the listed before commands for example:
http://localhost:8181/help user

Hi,
thank you.

I'm trying to explore /help section, but for now I'm stuck with the error above.

If I use localhost host, everything works (without need of user/pwd), but I need to get status also from others remote VDI (in same subnet)

Thanks,
pasquale

Just to confirm, you're using the Blue Prism user name and password, right?

I'd check if your password has any URL special characters, as it might be incorrectly parsing it. For example, if your password had an ampersand, such as test&123, you'd have to enter that in as test%26123 in the URL, since %26 translates to an ampersand.

Hi Nicholas,
thanks for reply.

Following what I'm doing:
- Login into VDI with username: XYZ and password: ABC [username and password doesn't contain special chart]
- Open Google Chrome and type:
  -> http://localhost:8181/status IT WORKS
  -> http://IP ADDRESS:8181/ NOT WORKS -> User Not Set Error

I've tried to set the user with the command suggested above (using %20 for space):

- http://[machine]:[port]/user name [XYZ] -> USER SET
- http://[machine]:[port]/password [ABC] -> AUTHENTICATION FAILED (I'm logged via remote desktop with these credential)
- http://[machine]:[port]/status -> USER NOT SET

Any ideas?

Thanks

​Hi Pasquale,

you've written, that you are logged in with those credentials via remote desktop.
But you need the password of the user account in Blue Prism and not the remote Desktop's Password.
Or are you using SSO in Blue Prism?
