| Description | This article describes how to troubleshoot errors encountered when polling FortiAnalyzer's API as a REST API user. |
| Scope | FortiAnalyzer. |
| Solution |
FortiAnalyzer allows the generation of API keys to be used by API users for polling purposes:
REST API users also require the configuration of trusted hosts to make API access more secure:
API users will need to make sure to poll FortiAnalyzer's API from a trusted subnet. If the subnet polled from is not trusted, it will display the following error:
{'result': [{'status': {'code': -11, 'message': 'No permission for the resource'}}], 'id': 5}
The following debug can be run to see what IP the incoming API request is coming from:
dia de app auth 8 dia de en auth api user: from=10.111.37.32 origin=(null)
To resolve this, the correct subnet needs to be included:
Once this is done, debug will show the API request being authorized:
auth api user: from=10.111.37.32 origin=(null) |
