Hello,
Understood. Is there any possibility to apply compatibility hotfixes for
admin API too while we prepare the rewrite on our end?
I'm sorry, that is not possible. The UserAPI had only mild changes,
mostly to remove a rather simple polymorphism in the parameters; a few
lines of code added compatiblity to the v1 API.
OTOH, the AdminAPI of version 1 was a terrible ad-hoc hack with really
ugly code. I was singing and dancing while I deleted that large chunk of
ugly code ;-) for a complete rewrite. There is no simple going back.
Greetings,
Stefan
I understand the sentiment :-) I figured out that you a beta instance
exists on https://cat-test.eduroam.org/beta/admin/API.php alas, it's
disabled:
{ "result": "ERROR", "details": { "errorcode": 1, "description": "API is disabled
in this instance of CAT" } }
Can you enable it so we can test our rewrite? Or is there any other
publicly available 2.0 instance to test against?

Martin

Hi,To unsubscribe, send this message:
due to problems like yours I have applied some hot-fixes to the
API to
make it accept the previous syntax. Can you confirm that your problems
still exist?

Hello!
At Arnes we are having an urgent issue. We're in the middle of a
massive
Eduroam deployment in elementary and high schools and we're using
cat.eduroam.org API in our home grown self-service provisoning portal
which
orchestrates the FreeRADIUS, LDAP and DHCP and CAT portal and profiles
provisoning.
It seems that that todays update of cat.eduroam.org API broke out
provisioning system. This is what we've found out so far:
- [just for context] on 3.10.2018 we've resolved an internal issue
with on provisioning system with a simple workaround, and deployed
on production
in the late afternoon.
- the last succesful provisoning by our system was completed yesterday
morning (3.10.2018)
- the error that we've got from debugging the self-service
provisioning
portal is the following:
- API endpoint our portal is calling:
https://cat.eduroam.org/admin/API.php
- debug from example payload (note that this is Python output which
is not
in valid JSON format):

}
- response from cat.eduroam.org API:
{
"result": "ERROR",
"details": {
"errorcode": 8,
"description": "Unable to decode JSON POST data."
}
}
- our testing environment where we use API from
https://cat-test.eduroam.org/branch/admin/API.php is doing fine.
Unfortunately, since the hand-off from the original AAI/developer team
that
developed our portal somehow missed this detail on so strictly relying
on cat.eduroam.org API, we weren't aware and ready of the coming CAT
upgrade.
That's why we're now in a showstopper situation and unable to meet our
deployment deadline, thus jeopardizing the project. We can't afford to
workaround with excluding the CAT from our provisioning system because
it's actually a cornerstone of the rollout.
We're asking for help or any information about API changes that could
help us restore the service as soon as possible.

Martin Božič
