NimbostratusiControl permissions
Hi All,
Hoping that you can help me on this, i'm fairly new to f5 and facing a task that i need help with.
I'm trying to add an iControl permission for our web dev team for them to pull the status of the nodes on f5 LTM via API.
I am having a problem when adding the user to iControl. I followed the guide from this link https://support.f5.com/csp/article/K84925527#allowremotewithbasic but i can't add the service account.
I'm using my personal admin account for f5 that is tied to AD to add the user.
The password contains the character (!) on it. Also tried using \\ as an escape character.
curl -sk -u sampeuser:password\\! https://localhost/mgmt/shared/authz/roles/iControl_REST_API_User -H "Content-Type: application/json" -X PATCH -d '{ "userReferences":[{"link":"https://localhost/mgmt/shared/authz/users/devaccount"}] }'
the return code is: "code":401,"message":"Authorization failed:
I also tried using our root cli account.
curl -sk -u root:password\\! https://localhost/mgmt/shared/authz/roles/iControl_REST_API_User -H "Content-Type: application/json" -X PATCH -d '{ "userReferences":[{"link":"https://localhost/mgmt/shared/authz/users/devaccount"}] }'
the return code is a bunch of error.
{"name":"iControl_REST_API_User","userReferences":[{"link":"https://localhost/mgmt/shared/authz/users/zmfrancis"}],"resources":[{"resourceMask":"/mgmt/tm/vcmp/*","restMethod":"PUT"},{"resourceMask":"/mgmt/tm/util/*/*","restMethod":"PATCH"},{"resourceMask":"/mgmt/tm/auth/*/*/*","restMethod":"GET"},{"resourceMask":"/mgmt/tm/sys/*/*/*/*/*/*/*","restMethod":"POST"},{"resourceMask":"/mgmt/tm/pem","restMethod":"GET"},{"resourceMask":"/mgmt/tm/wam/*/*","restMethod":"POST"},{"resourceMask":"/mgmt/tm/ltm/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*","restMethod":"POST"},{"resourceMask":"/mgmt/tm/net/*/*/*/*/*/*/*/*","restMethod":"PATCH"},{"resourceMask":"/mgmt/tm/transaction/*/*/*","restMethod":"PUT"},{"resourceMask":"/mgmt/tm/vcmp/*/*/*/*/*/*","restMethod":"DELETE"},{"resourceMask":"/mgmt/tm/cli","restMethod":"DELETE"},{"resourceMask":"/mgmt/tm/gtm/*/*/*/*/*/*/*","restMethod":"GET"},.........
