VMware Aria Automation
 Endpoint
Last Updated January 26, 2025

To create a
VMware Aria Automation
 endpoint, you make a POST request with a request body that includes
VMware Aria Automation
 specific parameters.
  • Verify that the appliance name and fully qualified domain name of the
    VMware Aria Suite Lifecycle
     instance are available.
  • Verify that the URL variable is assigned.
    url='https://LCM-Hostname'
  • Verify that you have added at least one
    VMware Aria Automation
     endpoint.
As a content developer, you use the API to create a
VMware Aria Automation
 endpoint.
  1. Create an endpoint to capture
    VMware Aria Automation
     content. In this example, the
    vroServerId
     is from the
    VMware Aria Automation Orchestrator
     endpoint that you created in Add a VMware Aria Automation Orchestrator Endpoint.
    curl -X POST \
  '$url/lcm/cms/api/v1/endpoints' \
  -H 'Authorization: Basic YWRtaW5AbG9jYWw6VGhpc0lzUGFzc3dvcmQ=' \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -d '{
    "tagNames": [
        "vra-prod-env"
    ],
    "supportCapture": true,
    "supportTest": true,
    "supportRelease": true,
    "supportOnlySourceControlledContent": false,
    "name": "vra-prod",
    "vroServerId":"7be2d7f0-bb34-4779-809f-904c328e1a7c",
    "enabled": true,
    "category": "Automation",
    "version": "7.x",
    "server": "<LCM-Hostname>",
    "userName": "<username_to_access_content_endpoint>",
    "password": "<password>",
    "tenant": "qe",
    "endpointType": "CONTENT_ENDPOINT"
}' | jq "."
  2. Examine the response.
    {
  "requestId":"fcb8040a-e44a-48b1-8cb4-ff7f793becf6",
  "status":"IN_PROGRESS",
  "message":"Endpoint Successfully Created",
  "referenceId":"e321e9f5-37a3-497c-93c9-b579fe8ba8fd"
}
  3. Assign the reference ID of the endpoint to a variable name. 
    vRAEndpoint = '<referenceID>'
  4. Get information about the
    VMware Aria Automation
     endpoint.
    curl -X GET \
  '$url/lcm/cms/api/v1/endpoints/{$vRAEndpoint}' \
  -H 'Accept: application/json' \
  -H 'Authorization: Basic YWRtaW5AbG9jYWw6VGhpc0lzUGFzc3dvcmQ=' \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' | jq "."
  5. Examine the response for information about the
    VMware Aria Automation
     endpoint.
    Response:
