The Viptela API documentation suggests to reuse the rest API session, but I am unable to reuse the session, and also the documentation does not have an example for that,
Below code give me an error if I store the cookies in a text file and reuse it for subsequent calls.
def __init__(self):
self.s = requests.Session()
self.cookie_url = "https://" + base_url + "/j_security_check"
self.login_data = {'j_username': username, 'j_password': password}
try:
self.res = self.s.post(self.cookie_url, verify=False,
data=self.login_data,
headers={
"Accept": "application/json"
})
self.cookie = self.res.cookies.get_dict(VM_Constants.base_url)['JSESSIONID']
with open("cookies.txt", "w") as f, open("token.txt", "w") as g:
f.write(self.cookie)
except Exception as e:
logger.critical(f"Failed to get cookies e is {e}, login={self.login_data}", exc_info=True)
raise SessionException("Unable to get cookies")and when I execute the below function after storing the cookies, I get the error
def get_omp_alarms(self):
with open("cookies.txt", "r") as f:
cookies = f.read()
try:
response = self.s.get("https://" + base_url + r"/dataservice/alarms",
params={"query": json.dumps(query_active_alarms)}, verify=False,
cookies={"Cookie:JSESSIONID": cookies})
logger.info(f"Vmanage query successful {response.status_code}")
print(response.text)
pprint(response.status_code)
pprint(response.json())
return response.json()
except Exception as e:
logger.critical(f"Failed to get Alarms, e is {e}", exc_info=True)
I get back some random HTML page
