Hi All,
I am new to the Cisco ISE 2.1 and trying to build an ASP.NET MVC 5 application that will create Guest Users using the Guest REST API.
While I am trying to get user details (created using sponsor portal by sponsor user "vspl"), I am able to get the information.
As I am trying to create a guest user account using the Guest REST API from my application and trying get response (HttpWebRequest.GetResponse()), an error "The remote server returned an error: (400) Bad Request." is raising. below is my code:
==============================================================================================
public string postXMLData()
{
destinationUrl = @"https://ise.demo.com:9060/ers/config/guestuser/";
HttpWebRequest request = (HttpWebRequest)HttpWebRequest.Create(destinationUrl);
request.Method = "POST"; // to create a new guest user account
request.ContentType = "application/vnd.com.cisco.ise.identity.guestuser.2.0+xml";
request.Accept = "application/vnd.com.cisco.ise.identity.guestuser.2.0+xml";
request.AutomaticDecompression = DecompressionMethods.GZip;
string credidentials = "vspl:Password"; //// "vspl is the Sponsor user"
string authCode = Convert.ToBase64String(Encoding.Default.GetBytes(credidentials)); //to convert user id and password as per RFC 2617
request.Headers.Add("Authorization", "Basic " + authCode);
//// XML data to post to the REST API's POST method
requestXml = @"<?xml version=""1.0"" encoding= ""utf-8"" standalone= ""yes""?><ns2:guestuser xmlns:ns2=""identity.ers.ise.cisco.com""><guestAccessInfo><fromDate>08/17/2016 19:01</fromDate><location>San Jose</location><toDate>11/14/2016 19:01</toDate><validDays>90</validDays></guestAccessInfo><guestInfo><company>VSPL</company><emailAddress>nitin.gupta1@velocis.co.in</emailAddress><enabled>false</enabled><firstName>Nitin</firstName><lastName>Gupta</lastName><notificationLanguage>English</notificationLanguage><phoneNumber>9988880000</phoneNumber><smsServiceProvider>Global Default</smsServiceProvider></guestInfo><guestType>Contractor (default)</guestType><personBeingVisited>deepesh.rastogi@gmail.com</personBeingVisited><reasonForVisit>Meeting</reasonForVisit></ns2:guestuser>";
byte[] bytes;
bytes = System.Text.Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(requestXml);
request.ContentLength = bytes.Length;
try
{
Stream requestStream = request.GetRequestStream();
requestStream.Write(bytes, 0, bytes.Length);
requestStream.Close();
//// Below line is throwing "The remote server returned an error: (400) Bad Request." error
using (HttpWebResponse response = (HttpWebResponse)request.GetResponse())
{
if (response.StatusCode == HttpStatusCode.OK)
{
Stream responseStream = response.GetResponseStream();
string responseStr = new StreamReader(responseStream).ReadToEnd();
return responseStr;
}
}
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
throw ex;
}
return null;
}
===========================================================================
Can somebody help me on this.
Thanks in advance.
