Hi
We have been using the API for a while to automatically open up a remote
session (VNC/RDP) with success.
We have started to use it for ssh, and with using a username/password – its
pretty successful. Here is what a json that is supplied to the API looks
like:
{
"username" : "user",
"expires" : "",
"connections" : {
"paul" : {
"protocol" : "ssh",
"parameters" : {
"hostname" : "rca",
"username" : "paul",
"port" : "10004",
"password" : "hello"
}
}
}
}
I use the encrypt-json.sh script and get the output, can go direct to the
URL to test and it works.
Issue is using a private key, how are we supposed to put that into the
json? IWe have tried like this:
{
"username" : "user",
"expires" : "",
"connections" : {
"paul" : {
"protocol" : "ssh",
"parameters" : {
"hostname" : "rca",
"username" : "paul",
"port" : "10004",
"private-key" : "-----BEGIN DSA PRIVATE KEY-----
MIIBuwIBAAKBgQDppeXMVXvli6AG1ndhH1hvyTCekMzeiqvPGKKqcWfUKWIzvyJ+
<SNIP>

A1cmHO6ihlFARJ89tOch
-----END DSA PRIVATE KEY-----"
}
}
}
}
But when we use encrypt-json.sh and create the token, and pass the token to
the website, we get this message in the logs and get a connection error
message in the website:
ERROR o.g.g.auth.json.user.UserDataService - Received JSON is invalid:
Illegal unquoted character ((CTRL-CHAR, code 10)): has to be escaped using
backslash to be included in string value
at [Source: java.io.StringReader@662d76c; line: 11, column: 66]
When we escape out the json required characters the json looks like this:
{
"username" : "user",
"expires" : "",
"connections" : {
"paul" : {
"protocol" : "ssh",
"parameters" : {
"hostname" : "rca",
"username" : "paul",
"port" : "10004",
"private-key" : "-----BEGIN DSA PRIVATE
KEY-----\r\nMIIBuwIBAAKBgQDppeXMVXvli6AG1ndhH1hvyTCekMzeiqvPGKKqcWfUKWIzvyJ+\r\n

DSA PRIVATE KEY-----"
}
}
}
}
But now connecting I get this:
ERROR o.g.g.auth.json.user.UserDataService - Received JSON is invalid:
Unexpected character ('-' (code 45)) in numeric value: expected digit (0-9)
to follow minus sign, for valid numeric value

Anyone able to provide any pointers?
Thanks
