Adapter
Adapter for Integration to LogicMonitor
Overview
This adapter is used to integrate the Itential Automation Platform (IAP) with the Logicmonitor System. The API that was used to build the adapter for Logicmonitor is usually available in the report directory of this adapter. The adapter utilizes the Logicmonitor 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.
Details
The LogicMonitor adapter from Itential is used to integrate the Itential Automation Platform (IAP) with LogicMonitor. With this adapter you have the ability to perform operations on items such as:
- Devices
- Thresholds
- Metrics

Specific Adapter Information
Authentication
This document will go through the steps for authenticating the LogicMonitor adapter with Custom Token Authentication (LMv1). Properly configuring the properties for an adapter in IAP is critical for getting the adapter online. You can read more about adapter authentication HERE.
Custom Token Authentication
The LogicMonitor adapter requires Custom Authentication (LMv1). The adapter will handle creating the LMv1 header as long as the correct API Token Access ID and API Token Access Key are provided, and auth_method
is set to no_authentication
.
If you change authentication methods, you should change this section accordingly and merge it back into the adapter repository.
STEPS
- Ensure you have access to a LogicMonitor server and that it is running
- Follow the steps in the README.md to import the adapter into IAP if you have not already done so
- Use the properties below for the
properties.authentication
field - Note that the
username
field will contain the LMv1accessId
and thepassword
field will contain the LMv1accessKey
"authentication": { "auth_method": "no_authentication", "username": "<accessId>", "password": "<accessKey>", "token_timeout": 1800000, "token_cache": "local", "invalid_token_error": 401, "auth_logging": false }
- Restart the adapter. If your properties were set correctly, the adapter should go online.
Troubleshooting
- Make sure you copied over the correct accessID and accessKey.
- 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.
Sample Properties
Sample Properties can be used to help you configure the adapter in the Itential Automation Platform. You will need to update connectivity information such as the host, port, protocol and credentials.
