API Access

CA Enterprise Log Manager allows you to use API calls to access data from the event repository using the query and report mechanism, and display it in a web browser. You can also use the API to embed CA Enterprise Log Manager queries or reports in a CA or third-party product interface.

Outside Product Registration

• Problem:

  You want to include CA Enterprise Log Manager information in an outside product interface. API calls must be authenticated in order to retrieve information from the CA Enterprise Log Managerevent log store.

• Solution:

  Log in as CA Enterprise Log Manager using the EIAM user name and password, navigate to the API registration interface and creates a certificate for the outside product, allowing it to authenticate. You can also register a product directly using the registerProduct call.

Embedding CA Enterprise Log Manager Reports or Queries in a Web Portal

• Problem:

  You want to display a CA Enterprise Log Manager query or report in a web portal.

• Solution:

  Identify the report or query you want to display, build the API call that will return it, and create a portlet in your web portal to display it. You must have appropriate rights to create or modify objects in your web portal.
