Using Powershell to Access the Duo Admin API

[Corey_Crossman]

Has anyone had any luck getting powershell to work. with the API. The documenation is horrid and i don’t want to go through the hassle of the module that i found on github. If anyone has any scripts to connect to it with powershell, that would be awesmoe if you can share.

Thanks!

how do you call API with powershell?

May be old news by this point…however, after futzing around for a couple hours trying to get Powershell Invoke-RestMethod to work… (that encrypting passwod thing is a bear) I went for the GitHub module, and had it up and running in about 10 minutes.

Same here…

That module seems to be the only thing that works.

Hi,

If you still need it, here is some sample code to work with authenticating to the REST API in PowerShell.

Its not nice to work with I agree. Here is a reusable PowerShell function you can use function New-DuoRequest(){ param( [Parameter(ValueFromPipeline=$True,ValueFromPipelineByPropertyName=$True)] $apiHost, [Parameter(Mandatory=$true,ValueFromPipeline=$True,ValueFromPipelineByPropertyName=$True)] [ValidateNotNull()] $apiEndpoint, [Parameter(ValueFromPipeline=$True,ValueFromPipelineByPropertyName=$True)] …

I agree that the documentation is lacking.
