Pandora: Documentation en: Annex ExternalAPI
Go back to Pandora FMS documentation index
The Pandora FMS External API is used doing remote calls (through HTTP) on the /include/api.php file. This is the method that has been defined in Pandora FMS to integrate applications from third parties to Pandora FMS. It basically consists on a call with the parameters formatted to receive a value or a list of values that after its application will be used to do operations.
A call to the API.php is as simple as this:
http://<Pandora Console install>/include/api.php<parameters>The API can only receive the following parameters:
- op (required): It is the first parameter that specifies the nature of the operation, which could be "get" or "set" or "help":
- get: It returns a value or values.
- set: It sends a value or values.
- help: It returns a little help from the calls
- op2 (required): The call with an explanatory name of the one that it works on.
- id (optional): The first call parameter.
- id2 (optional): The second call parameter.
- other (optional): The third call parameter, sometimes it could be a list of serial values.
- other_mode (optional): Serial format. list of posible values:
- url_encode: the othervalue is an alphanumeric formtted as UrlEncode.
- url_encode_separator_<separador>: The value will be a serial value list with the divider character, for example:
- returnType (optional): return format of the value or values. The current available values are:
- string: It returns the value as it is as an alphanumeric one.
- csv: It returns the values as a CSV separated with the ";" character (fields) and with CR (files) by default
- csv_head: It returns the same as with "csv", except that it adds a first file with the field names to return.
1.1 Security
At the moment, security is based on an IP list that will have access to the tool. And it will be configured as seen in the image, in Pandora FMS Console configuration options.
If you enter the character * in the box text, the ACL check will be omitted relegating the security to the protocol and to the environment.
You can also set a password for API actions.
In order to setup the password, follow these steps:
- apipass: Api password configured in the console. Do it in the following configuration view (Administration>Setup>):
Nota: Before version 4.0.2, this parameter was pass
To access API actions, it is necessary to give a Pandora FMS valid user and password.
- user: Valid Pandora FMS user
Note: In API calls, passwords are uncoded. Be careful and use SSL connections to avoid sniffers. The API allows POST petitions to encrypt them when using SSL/HTTPS.
1.1.1 Return
When the API denies the access, the simple string "auth error" is returned.
1.1.2 Examples
In this case, the API password 1234 is used. The user is admin and the password is pandora.
http://127.0.0.1/pandora_console/include/api.php?op=get&op2=plugins&return_type=csv&other=;&apipass=1234&user=admin&pass=pandoraAccess conditions:
- The source IP is in the ACLs IP list
- The API password is not set or is 1234
- The user admin exists and its password is pandora
1.1.3 Security Workflow
Starting from version 4.0.2, the API will have several security improvements, and this is implemented by three factors:
- IP filtering. Only listed / filtered IP will be allowed to connect to the API.
- Global API password, if defined, needed to use the API.
- User & password valid in the console. Permissions will be used each time there is a requested operation.
It is explained in this workflow:
1.2 New calls extension in the API
To develop new calls for the API, keep in mind that:
- The call has to be inscribed as a function in the file <installation Pandora FMS Console>/include/functions_api.php .
- The function must have this structure: The prefix "api", the kind of operation "get", "set" or "help" (depending on whether it is a data read, data write or retrieve help operation) and the name of the call, trying to be coherent with the operation, as for example: function api_get_[call_name](parameters) .
- The function can have no parameters, but if it has them, the parameters received will be the following in the same order:
- id: first operator or parameter, it contains a string.
- id2: second operator or parameter, it contains a string.
- other: rest of operators or parameters, it contains as an array of two positions:
- $other['type']: That might be be a string or an array.
- $other['data']: That will be a string with the parameter or an array of numeric index with the past parameters.
- returnType: string that specifies the kind of return that the call will have. It is usually visible for you, but you may use or modify it if necessary.
1.2.1 New Calls in the API from Pandora FMS extensions
It is possible to create new API calls without using /include/functions_api.php. The process consists of adding into a Pandora FMS extension directory a file with the following name: <extension_name>.api.php, and into this file create the desired functions with the same considerations of the standard API but with "apiextension" prefix instead of "api".
For example, having an extension called "module_groups" with the path <Pandora installation>/extensions/module_groups, create a file called module_groups.api.php into this directory.
The desired functions will be within this file, for example a function to get the number of modules in a group. This function must have a name like: "apiextension_get_groupmodules".
1.2.1.1 Function example
In this function, made up functions have been used.
1.2.1.2 Call example
This call example gets the number of modules of the "Servers" group.
http://127.0.0.1/pandora_console/include/api.php?op=get&op2=extension&ext_name=module_groups&ext_function=groupmodules&id=Servers&apipass=1234&user=admin&pass=pandora1.2.2 API Functions
The following functions could be used in your call function code:
- returnError(typeError, returnType): It gives back an error in an standardized way for all calls.
- typeError: By now 'id_not_found' or null.
- returnType: By now 'string' or error message.
- returnData(returnType, data, separator): It is the function that returns the API call data.
- returnType: That could be 'string', 'csv', 'csv_head'
- data: It is an array that contains the data, as well as its format. It has the following fields:
- 'type' (required): It could be 'string' and 'array'.
- 'list_index' (optional): It contains a numeric index array containing the alphanumeric index to be taken out through exit.
- 'data' (required): It contains a string with the data or an array of alphanumeric index or numeric index with data.
1.2.3 Example
1.3 API Calls
They are divided into two groups, depending on whether they return or write data in Pandora FMS.
There is an exception: The info retrieving call.
1.3.1 INFO RETRIEVING
It returns the version of Pandora FMS Console in a similar way as the get test call but without checking the API connection.
This call is useful to verify that this path allows a Pandora FMS installation and to retrieve the version before authentication.
The returned info can be retrieved from the login screen, so it is not considered a security vulnerability.
http://127.0.0.1/pandora_console/include/api.php?info=versionA return sample could be: Pandora FMS v5.0 - PC131015
1.3.2 GET
It returns the required data.
1.3.2.1 get test
It checks the connection to the API and returns the version of Pandora FMS Console.
This feature is in Metaconsole.
Call syntax: Without parameters
1.3.2.1.1 Examples
This example will return OK,[version],[build]
http://127.0.0.1/pandora_console/include/api.php?op=get&op2=test&apipass=1234&user=admin&pass=pandoraA return sample could be: OK,v4.0.2,PC120614
1.3.2.2 get all_agents
It returns a list of agent filters according to the filter in some other parameter.
Call syntax:
- op=get (required)
- op2=all_agents (required)
- return_type= csv or json (required)
- other=<serialized parameters> (optional). Serialized parameters to filter the agent search:
- <filter_so>
- <filter_group>
- <filter_module_states>
- <filter_alias>
- <filter_policy>
- <csv_separator>
- Recursion (1 or 0)
1.3.2.2.1 Examples
This example will return all agents whose id_os is equal to 1, id_group equals 2, state equal to warning, their alias contains 'j', and the policy associated equals 2.
CSV example: http://127.0.0.1/pandora_console/include/api.php?op=get&op2=all_agents&return_type=csv&other=1&other_mode=url_encode_separator_%7C&apipass=1234&user=admin&pass=pandora JSON example: http://127.0.0.1/pandora_console/include/api.php?op=get&op2=all_agents&return_type=json&other=1&other_mode=url_encode_separator_%7C&apipass=1234&user=admin&pass=pandora1.3.2.3 get module_last_value
Returns the last module value. This module is filtered by the ID which has gone through the id parameter. With the other parameter you may add an error code that your application knows and it is out of range of module values.
Call syntax:
- op=get (required)
- op2=module_last_value (required)
- id=<índex> (required). It should be an agent module index.
- other=<error return> (optional). What you wish to receive if there is an error(usually not located in the database).
- 'error_message'. It returns an error in a text message.
- 'error_value'<separator><code or value>. It returns this code or error value. But it is necessary to enclose it with 'other_mode', like other_mode=url_encode_separator_<separador> to place the divider on another one.
1.3.2.3.1 Examples
http://127.0.0.1/pandora_console/include/api.php?op=get&op2=module_last_value&id=63&other=error_value|0&other_mode=url_encode_separator_|&apipass=1234&user=admin&pass=pandora http://127.0.0.1/pandora_console/include/api.php?op=get&op2=module_last_value&id=62&apipass=1234&user=admin&pass=pandora1.3.2.4 get agent_module_name_last_value
It returns the last module value. This module is filtered by the agent name which has gone through id parameter and module name which has gone through id2 parameter. With the other parameter, you may add an error code recognized by your application and which is out of range of module values.
Call Syntax:
- op=get (required)
- op2=agent_module_name_last_value (required)
- id=<alphanumeric>(required). It contains the agent name.
- id2=<alphanumeric> (required). It contains the module name.
- other=<error return> (optional). What you wish to receive if there is an error (that usually has not been found in the DB).
- Codes of error return are:
- 'error_message'. It returns error in a text message.
- 'error_value'<separator><code or value>. It returns this code or error value, but it must come with 'other_mode' such as other_mode=url_encode_separator_<separator> to use the divider on another one.
1.3.2.4.1 Examples
http://127.0.0.1/pandora_console/include/api.php?op=get&op2=agent_module_name_last_value&id=miguel-portatil&id2=cpu_user&apipass=1234&user=admin&pass=pandora1.3.2.5 get agent_module_name_last_value_alias
=> 7.0NG
It returns the last module value. This module is filtered by the agent alias which has gone through id parameter and module name which has gone through parameter id2. With the other parameter, you may add an error recognized by your application and which is out range of module values.
Call Syntax:
- op=get (required)
- op2=module_last_value_alias (required)
- id=<alphanumeric>(required). It contains the agent alias.
- id2=<alphanumeric> (required). It contains the module name.
