How to Use: 🔎

This SDK exposes all the functionality provided by Cohesity REST API.

Initializing the Client using username and password:

username = 'Username'
password = 'Password'
domain = 'Domain' #optional
cluster_vip = 'prod-cluster.eng.cohesity.com'
client = CohesityClient(cluster_vip, username, password, domain)
cluster_controller = client.cluster
result = cluster_controller.get_basic_cluster_info()
result_dict =  result.__dict__
print(result_dict['cluster_software_version'])

#OUTPUT
6.4.1_release-20191219_aafe3274

Initializing the Client Using Session Id:

cluster_vip = 'prod-cluster.eng.cohesity.com'
session_id = '<session_id>'
client = CohesityClient(cluster_vip=cluster_vip, session_id = session_id)
cluster_controller = client.cluster
result = cluster_controller.get_basic_cluster_info()
print(result_dict['cluster_software_version'])


#OUTPUT
6.4.1_release-20191219_aafe3274

Initializing the Client Using Api Key:

cluster_vip = 'prod-cluster.eng.cohesity.com'
api_key = '<api_key>'
client = CohesityClient(cluster_vip=cluster_vip, api_key = api_key)
cluster_controller = client.cluster
result = cluster_controller.get_basic_cluster_info()
print(result_dict['cluster_software_version'])


#OUTPUT
6.4.1_release-20191219_aafe3274

Initializing the Client Using Open-Id token:

cluster_vip = 'prod-cluster.eng.cohesity.com'
open_id_token = '<token>'
client = CohesityClient(cluster_vip=cluster_vip, open_id_token = open_id_token)
cluster_controller = client.cluster
result = cluster_controller.get_basic_cluster_info()
print(result_dict['cluster_software_version'])


#OUTPUT
6.4.1_release-20191219_aafe3274

Initializing the Client Using MFA:

username = 'Username'
password = 'Password'
otp_type = 'Email'
otp_code = '123456'
domain = 'Domain' #optional
cluster_vip = 'prod-cluster.eng.cohesity.com'
client = CohesityClient(cluster_vip=cluster_vip, username=username, password=password, domain=domain, otp_type=otp_type, otp_code=otp_code)
cluster_controller = client.cluster
result = cluster_controller.get_basic_cluster_info()
print(result_dict['cluster_software_version'])


#OUTPUT
6.4.1_release-20191219_aafe3274
