MAP API

If you want to automate standard maps creation or maintenance, you may use the Centreon MAP extension API.

Permissions​

With this API, you can create / update / delete standard maps. To be able to use the API, the account you use needs to have one of the following privileges:

  • Centreon Admin account.
  • Map creation rights and editing rights for maps you wish to update / delete.

How to use Centreon MAP API​

Because the Centreon MAP API is not trivial to use, here is a scenario to authenticate, then create a map and add a shape on it.

Authenticate​

POST : http://serverURL:8081/centreon-map/api/beta/auth/sign-in
Headers {
    Content-Type = application/json
    X-Client-Version = 23.04.0
}

Body {
    "login" : "admin"
    "password" : "denied"
}
  • In the result, retrieve the jwtToken. You will need to use it for all your API calls. The headers will look like this:
Headers {
    Content-Type = application/json
    X-client-version = 23.04.0
    Authorization = Bearer \{jwtToken\}
}

Create a map​

POST http://serverURL:8081/centreon-map/api/beta/maps
Headers {
    Content-Type = application/json
    X-client-version =  23.04.0
    Authorization = Bearer \{jwtToken\}
}

Body {
      "name": "My new map created from API"
   }
  • Retrieve the ID of the map (mapId) and the view (viewId) returned.

Open the map​

GET http://serverURL:8081/centreon-map/api/beta/maps/_mapId_/views/_viewId_

Create and attach a "shape" element to the opened map​

In this scenario, the "shape" element is a rectangle.

PUT http://serverURL:8081/centreon-map/api/beta/maps/_mapId_/views
Body: {
 "id": \{viewId\},
 "shapes": [
     {
        "type": "RECTANGLE",
        "graphics": {
             "label": "EN - Rectangle",
             "x": 120,
             "y": 120,
             "width": 130,
             "height": 53,
             "color": "#0096FF",
             "thickness": 1,
             "borderColor": "#F0F0F0",
             "line": "SOLID"
         }
      }
   ]
}
