SDK for Crayon's Cloud-IQ API

Crayon CloudIQ SDK for Python

This project is an SDK for Crayon's CloudIQ API that can be used in Python scripts and applications. Provides a simple interface to authenticate with the API using Oauth2. It can be used to create tenants, create licensing subscriptions, and monitor billing. Anything that can be done in the Cloud-IQ portal can be automated using this package.

Includes several pre-configured data schema and API methods. Custom blocks of data can be posted to the API as Python dictionaries. REST methods: GET, POST, PATCH, PUT, and DELETE can be called with an API endpoint and data dictionary as arguments.

Installation

1. Install the crayon-cloudiq-sdk package with the following command:

   pip install crayon-cloudiq-sdk
   

Setup

How to Create Cloud-IQ API Client Credentials

1. Login to Cloud IQ
2. Choose Manage -> API Management from the top menu
3. Press the + Add Client button
4. Choose a name of the client
5. Choose Resource Flow as the authentication type
6. Save the Client ID and the Client Secret

Usage

1. Create a new python script

2. Import the CloudIQ class

   from cloudiq import CloudIQ
   

3. Initialize an instance of the CloudIQ class with valid user credentials:

   from cloudiq import CloudIQ
   
   CLIENT_ID = xxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxx
   CLIENT_SECRET = xxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxx
   USERNAME = "[e-mail]"
   PASSWORD = "Password123456"
   
   crayon_api = CloudIQ(CLIENT_ID,CLIENT_SECRET,USERNAME,PASSWORD)
   

   The prefered way of importing credentials is through ENV variables.

   from os import getenv
   from cloudiq import CloudIQ
   
   CLIENT_ID = getenv('CLIENT_ID')
   CLIENT_SECRET = getenv('CLIENT_SECRET')
   USERNAME = getenv('CLOUDIQ_USER')
   PASSWORD = getenv('CLOUDIQ_PW')
   
   crayon_api = CloudIQ(CLIENT_ID,CLIENT_SECRET,USERNAME,PASSWORD)
   

   ENV variables can be set using various methods including injection if using containers and pipelines or through a secrets manager such as Azure KeyVault. To set them on a local system using bash run the following commands:

   export CLIENT_ID="xxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxx"
   export CLIENT_SECRET="xxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxx"
   export USERNAME="[e-mail]"
   export PASSWORD="Password123456"
   

   An alternative method is to use a config.ini file containing the credentials and retrieve them using the configparser module.

   import configparser
   from cloudiq import CloudIQ
   
   # Parse configuration file
   try:
   	config = configparser.ConfigParser()
   	config.read('config.ini')
   	ID = config['CRAYON_API']['ID']
   	SECRET = config['CRAYON_API']['SECRET']
   	USER = config['CRAYON_API']['USER']
   	PASS = config['CRAYON_API']['PASS']
   except configparser.Error:
   	print("Configuration Error...config.ini not found")
   	exit()
   except KeyError:
   	print("Configuration Error...configuration not found in config.ini")
   	exit()
   
   crayon_api = CloudIQ(CLIENT_ID,CLIENT_SECRET,USERNAME,PASSWORD)

Returned Data

Data that is returned by the API is saved into a response object (except for getToken and validateToken). The response object contains values such as the status_code, headers, cookies, and the text returned by the API call.

• To return the json data from the response use response.json() class method

• To return the status code use the response.statuscode variable

• All successful API calls either return 200 OK, 201 Created, or 204 No Content

• Most error responses also provide a detailed error message in JSON form

• If you receive a 500 error, the data Schema payload is most likely the issue. It may be formatted incorrectly or missing required fields.

Remember to handle error statuses when writing automations

Error Handling Example using Return Status Code:

response = crayon_api.me()

if(int(response.status_code) == 200):
	# Handle JSON data
    print(response.json())
else:
	# Handle Error
	print(response.status_code)
	exit(1)

For a full explanation of the fields within a response object, please review the information in the following links:

• Official Requests.Response class documentation: https://docs.python-requests.org/en/latest/api/#requests.Response

• W3 Schools: https://www.w3schools.com/PYTHON/ref_requests_response.asp

Example calls

1. Make an unauthenticated test ping to the API

   response = crayon_api.ping()
   print(response,json())
   

2. Get information about the currently authenticated user

   response = crayon_api.me()
   print(response.json())
   

3. Make a raw GET request:

   # retrieves all products in the Azure Active Directory product family within Org 123456
   params = {
   	'OrganizationId': 123456,
   	'Include.ProductFamilyNames': 'Azure Active Directory'
   }
   # make a GET request to https://api.crayon.com/api/v1/AgreementProducts
   response = crayon_api.get("https://api.crayon.com/api/v1/AgreementProducts",params)
   print(response.json())
   

   Data can be sent to the API as a standard Python dictionary object

4. Retrieve a valid authorization token:

   response = crayon_api.getToken()
   print(response)
   

5. Create a tenant using the CustomerTenantDetailed schema:

   # Set Unique Tenant Variables
   tenant_name = "tenant_name"
   domain_prefix = "domain_prefix"
   
   # Initialize Tenant and Agreement objects
   tenant = crayon_api.CustomerTenantDetailed(
   	tenant_name=tenant_name,
   	domain_prefix=domain_prefix,
   	org_id=111111,
   	org_name="Fake Org",
   	invoice_profile_id=80408, # Default
   	contact_firstname="First",
   	contact_lastname="Last",
   	contact_email="[e-mail]",
   	contact_phone="5555555555",
   	address_firstname="First",
   	address_lastname="Last",
   	address_address="75 NoWhere Lane",
   	address_city="Boston",
   	address_countrycode="US",
   	address_region="MA",
   	address_zipcode="02109"
   )
   
   agreement = crayon_api.CustomerTenantAgreement(
   	firstname="First",
   	lastname="Last",
   	phone_number="5555555555",
   	email="[e-mail]"
   )
   
   #Create New Tenant
   new_tenant = crayon_api.createTenant(tenant.tenant)
   print(new_tenant.json())
   
   # Agree to Microsoft Customer Agreement
   tenant_id = new_tenant["Tenant"]["Id"]  
   agreement = crayon_api.createTenantAgreement(tenant_id,agreement.agreement)
   print(agreement.json())
   

6. Buy a Microsoft license for a tenant using the SubscriptionDetailed schema:

   tenant_id=123456
   
   # Create Subscription objects
   azure_subscription = crayon_api.SubscriptionDetailed(
   	name="Azure P2 Subscription",
   	tenant_id=tenant_id,
   	part_number="CFQ7TTC0LFK5:0001",
   	quantity=1,
   	billing_cycle=1,
   	duration="P1M"
   )
   
   # Create Azure P2 Subscription
   subscription = crayon_api.createSubscription(azure_subscription.subscription)
   print(subscription.json)
