Update SDTs

Last updated on 25 February, 2021

With LogicMonitor’s REST API you can programmatically update an existing SDT.

Note: As with all of our API calls, authentication is required.

Note that consistent with REST standards, any properties not specified in a PUT request will revert back to their default values.

HTTP Method:PUT

URI: /sdt/sdts/{id}

The parameters you can include in your request depends on what type of SDT you’re updating:

Update a One Time SDT

Request Parameters: You can specify the following properties in your PUT request for a one time SDT:

Example 1: Python

The following Python script updates a daily SDT for service 23:

#!/bin/env python

import requests
import json
import hashlib
import base64
import time
import hmac

#Account Info
AccessId ='48v2wRzfK94y53sq5EuF'
AccessKey ='H_D9i(f5~B^U36^K6i42=^nS~e75gy382Bf6{)P+'
Company = 'api'

#Request Info
httpVerb ='PUT'
resourcePath = '/sdt/sdts/S_11'
queryParams =''
data = '{"sdtType":4,"type":"ServiceSDT","serviceId":23,"hour":18,"minute":45,"endHour":19,"endMinute":45}'

#Construct URL 
url = 'https://'+ Company +'.logicmonitor.com/santaba/rest' + resourcePath + queryParams

#Get current time in milliseconds
epoch = str(int(time.time() * 1000))

#Concatenate Request details
requestVars = httpVerb + epoch + data + resourcePath

Construct signature
hmac1 = hmac.new(AccessKey.encode(),msg=requestVars.encode(),digestmod=hashlib.sha256).hexdigest()
signature = base64.b64encode(hmac1.encode())

#Construct headers
auth = 'LMv1 ' + AccessId + ':' + signature.decode() + ':' + epoch
headers = {'Content-Type':'application/json','Authorization':auth}

#Make request
response = requests.put(url, data=data, headers=headers)

#Print status and body of response
print('Response Status:',response.status_code)
print('Response Body:',response.content)
Python 3

Example 2: PowerShell

The following PowerShell script updates a daily SDT for service 23:

<# Use TLS 1.2 #>
[Net.ServicePointManager]::SecurityProtocol = <span class="error">[Net.SecurityProtocolType]</span>::Tls12

<# account info #>
$accessId = '48v2wRzfK94y53sq5EuF'
$accessKey = 'H_D9i(f5~B^U36^K6i42=^nS~e75gy382Bf6{)P+'
$company = 'api'

<# request details #>
$httpVerb = 'PUT'
$resourcePath = '/sdt/sdts/S_11'
$data = '{"sdtType":4,"type":"ServiceSDT","serviceId":23,"hour":18,"minute":45,"endHour":19,"endMinute":45}'

<# Construct URL #>
$url = 'https://' + $company + '.logicmonitor.com/santaba/rest' + $resourcePath

<# Get current time in milliseconds #>
$epoch = [Math]::Round((New-TimeSpan -start (Get-Date -Date "1/1/1970") -end (Get-Date).ToUniversalTime()).TotalMilliseconds)

<# Concatenate Request Details #>
$requestVars = $httpVerb + $epoch + $data + $resourcePath

<# Construct Signature #>
$hmac = New-Object System.Security.Cryptography.HMACSHA256
$hmac.Key = [Text.Encoding]::UTF8.GetBytes($accessKey)
$signatureBytes = $hmac.ComputeHash([Text.Encoding]::UTF8.GetBytes($requestVars))
$signatureHex = [System.BitConverter]::ToString($signatureBytes) -replace '-'
$signature = [System.Convert]::ToBase64String([System.Text.Encoding]::UTF8.GetBytes($signatureHex.ToLower()))

<# Construct Headers #>
$auth = 'LMv1 ' + $accessId + ':' + $signature + ':' + $epoch
$headers = New-Object "System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary[[String],[String]]"
$headers.Add("Authorization",$auth)
$headers.Add("Content-Type",'application/json')

<# Make Request #>
$response = Invoke-RestMethod -Uri $url -Method $httpVerb -Body $data -Header $headers 

<# Print status and body of response #>
$status = $response.status
$body = $response.data| ConvertTo-Json -Depth 5

Write-Host "Status:$status"
Write-Host "Response:$body"
