Adapter for Integration to Venafi Trust Protection Platform

Overview

This adapter is used to integrate the Itential Automation Platform (IAP) with the venafi_trust_protection_platform System. The API that was used to build the adapter for venafi_trust_protection_platform is usually available in the report directory of this adapter. The adapter utilizes the venafi_trust_protection_platform API to provide the integrations that are deemed pertinent to IAP. The ReadMe file is intended to provide information on this adapter it is generated from various other Markdown files.

For further technical details on how to install and use this adapter, please click the Technical Documentation tab.

Table of Contents

This document will go through the steps for authenticating the venafi_trust_protection_platform adapter with Basic Authentication. Properly configuring the properties for an adapter in IAP is critical for getting the adapter online. You can read more about adapter authentication HERE.

Basic Authentication

The venafi_trust_protection_platform adapter requires Basic Authentication. If you change authentication methods, you should change this section accordingly and merge it back into the adapter repository.

STEPS

  1. Ensure you have access to a venafi_trust_protection_platform server and that it is running
  2. Follow the steps in the README.md to import the adapter into IAP if you have not already done so
  3. Use the properties below for the properties.authentication field
    "authentication": {
    "auth_method": "basic user_password",
    "username": "<username>",
    "password": "<password>",
    "token": "",
    "token_timeout": 1800000,
    "token_cache": "local",
    "invalid_token_error": 401,
    "auth_field": "header.headers.Authorization",
    "auth_field_format": "Basic {b64}{username}:{password}{/b64}",
    "auth_logging": false,
    "client_id": "",
    "client_secret": "",
    "grant_type": ""
    }
  4. Restart the adapter. If your properties were set correctly, the adapter should go online.

Troubleshooting

  • Make sure you copied over the correct username and password.
  • Turn on debug level logs for the adapter in IAP Admin Essentials.
  • Turn on auth_logging for the adapter in IAP Admin Essentials (adapter properties).
  • Investigate the logs - in particular:
    • The FULL REQUEST log to make sure the proper headers are being sent with the request.
    • The FULL BODY log to make sure the payload is accurate.
    • The CALL RETURN log to see what the other system is telling us.
  • Remember when you are done to turn auth_logging off as you do not want to log credentials.
