Hi, all.
I'm trying to create an alert via OpsGenie API but I'm getting an error related to the authentication.
Please, find below the steps I'm following and all the details about the problem.
Here is the command I'm executing:
curl --location --request POST 'https://api.opsgenie.com/v2/alerts' \--header 'Authorization: GenieKey <MY API KEY>' \--header 'Content-Type: text/plain' \--data-raw ''\''{"message": "Test alert", "description": "This is just a test" }'\'''
But, I'm getting this error:
{ "code": 40301, "message": "To perform this action, use an API key from an API integration.", "took": 0.002, "requestId": "1343b720-98e8-49f1-bb4e-1706c2b9ae83"}
I generated the API key from the settings menu (Settings -> API Key Management). The API key has read, create and update access rights.
Regarding the API URL, I tried to use the Europe URL - https://api.eu.opsgenie.com/v2/alerts
But, I get this error
{ "message": "Could not authenticate", "took": 0.007, "requestId": "6d3adc4c-d201-4fdc-9caf-8db62233e4fb"}
What am I missing?
Thanks in advance.
The Create Alert API requires an API key from an API integration. This can be added under the Settings tab >> Integrations tab, or under a team's Integrations tab. NOTE - If the integration is assign to a team, it will only be able to create alerts for that team.
An API key from the API Key Management tab will produce this 403 error (apiKey is valid but the apiKey cannot do this operation because of permissions).
Let us know if you have any issues or errors after.
Also - I noticed your syntax is using header:
Content-Type: text/plain
And Opsgenie will be expecting it in
Content-Type: application/json
Otherwise you'll most likely receive a "Content type is not supported" error.
