Adapter
Adapter for Integration to ScienceLogic SL1
Overview
This adapter is used to integrate the Itential Automation Platform (IAP) with the ScienceLogicSl1 System. The API that was used to build the adapter for ScienceLogicSl1 is usually available in the report directory of this adapter. The adapter utilizes the ScienceLogicSl1 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

Specific Adapter Information
Authentication
This document will go through the steps for authenticating the ScienceLogic SL1 adapter with Basic Authentication, Static API Key & OAuth 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.
Companies periodically change authentication methods to provide better security. As this happens this section should be updated and contributed/merge back into the adapter repository.
Basic Authentication
The ScienceLogic SL1 adapter requires Basic 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 ScienceLogic SL1 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.authenticationfield"authentication": { "auth_method": "basic user_password", "username": "<username>", "password": "<password>", "auth_field": "header.headers.Authorization", "auth_field_format": "Basic {b64}{username}:{password}{/b64}", "auth_logging": false }you can leave all of the other properties in the authentication section, they will not be used for ScienceLogic SL1 Basic Authentication.
Restart the adapter. If your properties were set correctly, the adapter should go online.
API Key Authentication
The ScienceLogic SL1 adapter also support Authentication with API Key/Token. 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 ScienceLogic SL1 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.authenticationfield"authentication": { "auth_method": "static_token", "token": "apikey/token", "auth_field": "header.headers.Authorization", "auth_field_format": "{token}", "auth_logging": false }you can leave all of the other properties in the authentication section, they will not be used for ScienceLogic SL1 Static Token.
Restart the adapter. If your properties were set correctly, the adapter should go online.
OAuth Authentication
The ScienceLogic SL1 adapter also support Authentication with OAuth. 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 ScienceLogic SL1 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.authenticationfield"authentication": { "auth_method": "request_token", "username": "username", "password": "password", "auth_field": "header.headers.Authorization", "auth_field_format": "Bearer {token}", "auth_logging": false }you can leave all of the other properties in the authentication section, they will not be used for ScienceLogic SL1 Static Token. For this authentication there may be additional changes required in the endpoint configuration within the adapter.
Restart the adapter. If your properties were set correctly, the adapter should go online.
Troubleshooting
- Make sure you copied over the correct username, password and token.
- 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.
- Credentials should be masked by the adapter so make sure you verify the username and password - including that there are erroneous spaces at the front or end.
- 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.
