Changing different Properties on sessions

Changing different Properties on sessions

avatar
RokB

Hi,

currently I would like to change a few properties on a new sessions I create (type Folder and Credentials but I guess these kind of properties apply to all sessions):

  • change icon (copy it from existing since probably you have to know its ID)
  • chagne icon Color (probably defined by ID if above method could be used - otherwise Property Color on a session object is without value and property ColorMode is custom, so I guess this is some other property...)


Best regards,
Rok

Hello RokB,

I am unable to set the properties for the icon and icon color using the RDM cmdlet, they seem to be read-only. I will verify with my colleagues and get back to you.

Best regards,

Hello RokB,

To change only the color, you can use the following. Refer to the last code block for more details and comments.
You will need to replace the SessionID with the Session ID and colorname with one of the following : Black - Blue - Forest - Grey - Orange - Royal - Yellow - Purple - Black - Red - Green . Note that it needs to be inserted between brackets [ ].

$RDMsession = Get-RDMSession | Where-Object {$_.id -eq "SessionID"}
$RDMSession.ImageName = "[colorname]"
Set-RDMSession -Session $RDMsession
Update-RDMUI


To change the icon to one of the images, you can use the code below. You will need to change the sessionID and the changename

$RDMsession = Get-RDMSession | Where-Object {$_.id -eq "SessionID"}
$RDMSession.ImageName = "SamplechangeName"
Set-RDMSession -Session $RDMsession
Update-RDMUI


Note that for the image name, you need to put Sample first and then the name of the icon followed by the color. For example, if you want the FlagGreen, you need to put "SampleFlagGreen". The name of the icons are available in RDM.

I also created functions for you:

Hi,
new error I would like help with, is not connected to changing properties, but general error when programmatically trying to create sessions, I don't get any visible error running the code:

$exist = New-RDMSession -Name "Usernames & Passwords" -Group $($selectedcusomer.Group) -Type Group
Set-RDMSession -Session $exist
$exist.ImageName = "SampleContactRoyal"
Set-RDMSession -Session $exist
Update-RDMUI

When I check result after New-RDMsession I get ID of the object to be created. Code executes, result not visible, now I found in logs on SQL server:
SqlException - Violation of PRIMARY KEY constraint 'PK_Connections'. Cannot insert duplicate key in object 'dbo.Connections'. The duplicate key value is (4df99c3a-e6a7-4442-8437-da085f6f3775).

Any idea what I am doing wrong? I try to do Update-RDMUI after every change...

Hello RokB,

Sorry for the delayed answer. I just tested your snippet (modified a bit) and it works fine on my side

$exist = New-RDMSession -Name "Usernames & Passwords" -Group "Usernames & Passwords" -Type Group
$exist.ImageName = "SampleContactRoyal"
Set-RDMSession -Session $exist
Update-RDMUI

Could you provide the value of $exist | fl *

code with comments is attached. $collectionUsers you can create by importing: $collectionUsers = import-clixml -path "<path_to_xml>
Anyhow, I am stuck already before that, line 43-45, create a Group with name "Usernames & Passwords".

PS C:\>         $exist.ImageName = "SampleContactRoyal"

PS C:\>         Set-RDMSession -Session $exist

PS C:\>     Update-RDMUI

PS C:\> $customersessions= $Sessions | ? {$_.Group -like "$($selectedcusomer.Group)\*"}

PS C:\> $customersessions

PS C:\> $selectedcusomer.Group
Location1\Customer1

It looks like successful, but without the result.
In event log I didn't get any error this time. In database I can see it:
forum image

In web I can see that I created it, anyhow it is not seen when browsing there:
forum image

forum image

Could be something to do with cache? It should sync when running Update-RDMUI?

Best regards,

I compared to existing one, looks like I am doing something wrong when defining ImageName:

Not just that what is bothering creation, tried to assign imageMD5:

PS C:\>         $exist = New-RDMSession -Name "Usernames & Passwords" -Group $($selectedcusomer.Group) -Type Group

PS C:\>         $exist.ImageName = "SampleContactRoyal"

PS C:\> $exist.ImageMD5 = "b82cd95a73a8315bdbcc2e05daa9c4a6"

PS C:\>         Set-RDMSession -Session $exist

PS C:\>     Update-RDMUI

PS C:\> $exist | fl *

This is not going in right direction, I have already created a few of them with the same path, same name (probably I should test in a "new folder"):

Hello RokB,

Setting the imageMD5 is not required, once the session is saved, it should auto-populate that field. As a test, could you try to create the folder by hardcoding (or without) the -group parameter and see if it works?

To validate, what version of DPS are you using? A refresh may be required in RDM to see the entry after the the Update-RDMUI.

Best regards,

Hi,

DPS version: 2020.2.10, Office365Auth, RDM 2020.2.19

Cleaned up all session (connections) I created in SQL Connections and ConnectionsHistory tables. I can see that no error is created since it is successful (even the icon is applied). But it appears in the GUI (RDM or web) only if I restart IIS (the connections I created earlier didn't appear at all even after several days, so I guess it is not only "cache" thing). I tried using CTRL+F5 after every change, sometimes even delete cache from RDM's datasource GUI interface/logoff/Refresh. Any other way to forcefully re-read info from database?
I can probably even reproduce the "error" every time, I will do some investigation. Problem is that I cannot change created session before IIS restart (trouble some if I need to add sessions in a folder)...

Do I get process of creation of sessions (my case credential entry) right in steps:

  1. $variable=New-RDMSession...
  2. Set-RDMsession $variable
  3. set the properties with Set-RDMSessionUsername/Password? (this doesn't work since it cannot fetch the created session)
  4. Update-RDMUI

But I guess problem commes from other source than PS, since even if I do that in GUI, no values are visible before IIS restart... Could be authentication? I will try on another instance where I have win auth...

Hello RokB,

For the steps, you can set the properties in $variable before you do the Set-RDMSession, it will save one command from your script.

As for the IIS issue, it seems to be a problem with your DPS, so it would be unrelated to PowerShell. If you have a test environment, you can test it there. The entries are in the SQL Server, so the issue should not be on that side, but it may be a problem with the decrypting performed by DPS. If this is the case, I would recommend sending us a log from your DPS to ticket@devolutions.net and we will create a ticket and have a look with you.

On the DPS website, turn on Log debug information under Administration - Password Server Settings - Logging, run the PS script and try to refresh RDM, with the IIS reset if necessary. You can then send us the Data Sources Logs under the Reports tab on the website. You should then turn off the debug mode.

Best regards,

Richard Boisvert
