GroupWise REST API

dschaldenovell
 
Good morning,
 
Customer is attempting to use REST to move a GW Resource, the Resource has a "/" symbol in it, for example: my/resource~ when they attempt to perform the move there is an error, which we are assuming is the issue with the "/" is there a way to encapsulate that Resource name such as in single quotes 'my/resource' or double quotes "my/resource"
 
Thank you for any assistance that can be offered
 
Daniel

    Good morning 

     

    This is from the customer 

     

    Not sure I am following what this is. Is this a command that should allow us to move the resource without worrying about the association?

     

    Basically when we tried to move the object previously, it was encountering an error with a Sync Error. So to the question above would this take into account any Associations? 

     

    Thank you,

    Hi,

    A resource should not have any association. It does not have an LDAP counterpart.

    Cheers,

    Good morning, 

     

    That is part of the issue, the Resource in Question was created in an earlier version of GroupWise (prior to GW 2012) back-line provided us/customer with a script that was supposed to sever that association so that the Resource could then be moved.

    The customer is/was attempting to run the script on that Resource, and that's when they are receiving the error, which again seems to be because the Resource has a "/" in it's name. Another Engineer suggested doing the following: "Cxx/Rexxxls" or "Cxx\/Rexxxls" so the command would look something like this, https://10.xx.xx.xx:9710/gwadmin-service/domains/BxxMxxO/postoffices/PO1/users/Cxx/Rexxxls~/directorylink

     

    The customer is going to be trying again today

     

    Thank you,

    Hi Daniel,

    If that doesn't work you could consider renaming the resource first to remove the illegal characters:

     

    curl -k --user admin:password -H "Content-Type:application/json" -X POST ipofserver:9710/.../rename --data '{"objectId":"RESOURCE.dom1.po1.Test Resource","newObjectId":"TestResource"}'

     

    In the example above the resource had a space in the name.  This should work with any other illegal character.

     

    Cheers,
