    Has anyone ever tried running batchsequences ?

    I'm trying to send a batchsequence command using the CAPAM CLI, but it's complaining about the schema validation.

    Based on the AddAll.xml sample that's on the documentation, I created the following one:

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
    <CLI_REQUEST>
       <COMMAND name="addTargetApplication">
          <COMMAND_PARAMETERS>
             <PARAMETER>
                <NAME>TargetServer.hostName</NAME>
                <VALUE>10.1.1.1</VALUE>
             </PARAMETER>
             <PARAMETER>
                <NAME>TargetApplication.type</NAME>
                <VALUE>Generic</VALUE>
             </PARAMETER>
             <PARAMETER>
                <NAME>TargetApplication.name</NAME>
                <VALUE>GEN-Test</VALUE>
             </PARAMETER>
             <PARAMETER>
                <NAME>Attribute.descriptor1</NAME>
                <VALUE>Test</VALUE>
             </PARAMETER>
             <PARAMETER>
                <NAME>Attribute.descriptor2</NAME>
                <VALUE>Test</VALUE>
             </PARAMETER>
          </COMMAND_PARAMETERS>
       </COMMAND>
    </CLI_REQUEST>

     

    But I'm getting the following error.

    Jan 23, 2018 10:45:29 AM com.cloakware.cspm.common.util.ab b
    SEVERE: Failed to validate XML document schema
    org.xml.sax.SAXParseException; cvc-elt.1.a: Cannot find the declaration of element 'CLI_REQUEST'.

     

    For me, this error doesn't make sense since my request respects the schema provided on the documentation.

    Does anyone ever saw this error?

    Thanks in advance

     

    Best regards

    Hello, your CLI_REQUEST element is missing name server and schema information. The correct first line is

    <CLI_REQUEST xmlns="http://www.cloakware.com" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.cloakware.com/opt/cloakware/cspmserver/tools/cli/cspmcli.xsd">

     

    See https://docops.ca.com/ca-privileged-access-manager/3-0-2/EN/programming/credential-manager-apis/use-the-credential-manager-cli/batch-command-execution, except that the example in there doesn't quote the name server value properly, and it's not clear that the <CLI_REQUEST …> element should be on a single line. We'll notify the doc team on this.
