RP4VM 5.2 REST API PUT issue

I am building a script to add event filters to multiple clusters across our environment. We are using PowerShell to accomplish this. When I use the setEventsLogsFilters POST method I can add in the event. However I cannot change the event filter by using the same json and changing the value I want to edit.

First hing before I post the script. I found that setEventsLogsFilters does not accept an array formatted json ([ ] bracketing multiple elements) so I have to place the inline json into a text file and I have to iterate through the different lines to get what I wanted.

Here is the script:

$ rp4vmcl = import-csv - Path .\event_clusters.csv # Loads in the different cluster information

$ credential = Get-Credential

$ username = $ credential.GetNetworkCredential () .UserName

$ password = $ credential.GetNetworkCredential () .password

$ credPair = "$($ username ) : $($ password )"

$ encodedCredentials = [ System.Convert ] ::ToBase64String ([ System.Text.Encoding ] ::ASCII.GetBytes ($ credPair ))

$ headers = @ {

Authorization = " Basic $ encodedCredentials " ;

" Accept " = " application/json " ;

" Content-Type " = " application/json "

}

$ comp = " /system/event_logs_filters " # Where this particular script will action

foreach ($ s in $ rp4vmcl ) { # Feeding in the json string

$ cluster = $ s.cluster_name

$ uid = $ s.cluster_uid

$ curl = $ s.cluster_url

$ url = "$ curl $ comp "

$ cluster

foreach ($ j in Get-Content .\event_log_filter.txt ) {

$ json = $ j

#$json # Using this for debug

$ results = Invoke-RestMethod - Method POST - uri $ url - SkipCertificateCheck - Headers $ headers - Body $ json

$ gresults = Invoke-RestMethod - Method GET - uri $ url - SkipCertificateCheck - Headers $ headers # Validating this took

$ gresults.innerSet # Displaying results

}

Here is the text file:

{ "JsonSubType": "SystemEventLogsFilter", "level": "WARNING", "scope": "ADVANCED", "eventsIDs": [], "filterUID": { "id": 1570417688566256135 }, "name": "RPA_issue", "topic": "RPA", "groupsToInclude": null }
{ "JsonSubType": "SystemEventLogsFilter", "level": "WARNING", "scope": "ADVANCED", "eventsIDs": [], "filterUID": { "id": -1728986321682574312 }, "name": "cluster_events", "topic": "CLUSTER", "groupsToInclude": null }

As I pointed out a POST works fine but if I change the POST to a PUT it fails with this:

Unrecognized field "JsonSubType" (Class com.emc.fapi.rest.version5_2.wrappers.SetSystemEventLogsFiltersParams), not marked as ignorable
at [Source: org.apache.catalina.connector.CoyoteInputStream@131a6d2f; line: 1, column: 19] (through reference chain:
com.emc.fapi.rest.version5_2.wrappers.SetSystemEventLogsFiltersParams["JsonSubType"])

What needs to be changed for the PUT?
