Audit Log on Softlayer

In Softlayer Portal, what Java API can retrieve the data on Audit Log view. I am developing a portal page using Java Client API. If you choose one of the actions in the device list, you can get into the page below.. If you share a python sample code, it will be helpful as well.

Softlayer Audit View Log page

Looking for your feedback.. Thank you

Mike

Please try this java example to get the Audit log items using the SoftLayer_Event_Log::getAllObjects

import java.util.Iterator;
import java.util.List;

import com.softlayer.api.ApiClient;
import com.softlayer.api.RestApiClient;
import com.softlayer.api.ResultLimit;
import com.softlayer.api.service.event.Log;

public class getAllObjects {

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        String username = "set me"; 
        String apikey = "set me";
        ApiClient client = new RestApiClient().withCredentials(username, apikey).withLoggingEnabled();
        com.softlayer.api.service.event.Log.Service eventLogService =  com.softlayer.api.service.event.Log.service(client);

        eventLogService.setResultLimit(new ResultLimit(0,50));
        List<Log> a = eventLogService.getAllObjects();

        Iterator<Log> iterator = a.iterator();
        int idx = 0;
        while (iterator.hasNext()) {
        Log data = iterator.next();
        System.out.println(" Data: " + idx);
        System.out.println(" UserName: " + data.getUsername());
        System.out.println(" userType: " + data.getUserType());
        System.out.println(" Action: " + data.getEventName());
        idx++;

    }

}

}

In the script was added “result Limits” in order to get more items than by default (amount by default displayed= 25 last items).

Using the API you can get the same information as in control portal (https://control.softlayer.com/account/auditlog), you just need to use this method: http://sldn.softlayer.com/reference/services/SoftLayer_Event_Log/getAllObjects

here an example using REST API call to get the logs:

URL: https://$USERNAME:[email protected]/rest/v3/SoftLayer_Event_Log/getAllObjects.json?resultLimit=0,300

Method: GET

Note: By default the method return the last 25 events if you wish to see more events you need to use the "resultLimit" query

For more information about Softlayer Rest see http://sldn.softlayer.com/article/REST)

If you have troubles to call the method in java or need more information let me know.

I hope it helps
