API, get person with person groups

Eduardo Casarero

Hi all, am trying to find the right category to query the API and get the person object with its assigned groups, but I am not getting them. I've tried many categories, but I can't find the right one, so far this is my base query:

{
    "version": "2.0",
    "method": "cmdb.objects.read",
    "params": {
        "categories": [
            "C__CATS__ORGANIZATION_PERSONS","C__CATG__ASSIGNED_SUBSCRIPTIONS", "C__CATS__PERSON_ASSIGNED_GROUPS"
        ],
        "filter": {
            "type": "C__OBJTYPE__PERSON",
            "title": "John Doe"
        },

        "order_by": "",
        "sort": "",
        "apikey": "xxxxxxx"
    },
    "id": 1
}

Any hints on where is my error?

Hello @Eduardo-Casarero,

You should try using the method cmdb.category.read for category "C__CATS__PERSON_ASSIGNED_GROUPS" using the user id.

{
    "version": "2.0",
    "method": "cmdb.category.read",
    "params": {
        "objID": 158,
        "category": "C__CATS__PERSON_ASSIGNED_GROUPS",
        "apikey": "XXX"
    },
    "id": 1
}

Hey @Eduardo-Casarero

youre JSon is correct but if you get categories =[] then it seems like a bug.
There is actually a open bug with these categories:

"C__CATS__PERSON_GROUP_MASTER",
"C__CATS__PERSON_CONTACT_ASSIGNMENT",
"C__CATS__PERSON_GROUP_MEMBERS",
"C__CATS__ORGANIZATION_PERSONS",
"C__CATS__PERSON_ASSIGNED_GROUPS"

So you need to use the category.read method like @fa__ described.
