Question

How can provider get data from the usage site of WAP portal directly?

Answer

There are several ways to retrieve this information:

  1. You may first check it from WAP server in browser like it is described in http://download.pa.parallels.com/poa/WAP/pa_wap_integration_deployment_guide.pdf#page=27.

  2. The following curl request can be used to get data from the usage site:

    # curl -i -k -u'<username>:<password>' -X GET https://1.2.3.4:30022/usage?startid=-1&batchsize=100
    

To get data from the usage site, you need to have a user name and password. The required login and password are entered during the deployment of WAP module in OA in Services > Cloud Infrastructure > Windows Azure Pack > Settings. To get the username currently used for usage site you may use the following powershell cmdlets:

Import-Module -Name MgmtSvcConfig

Get-MgmtSvcSetting -Namespace UsageService -Name Username

You will get something like:

Name                             SettingType      Value                              Description
