Installation

• From PowerShell Gallery:

Install-Module -Name "Logic.Monitor"

Upgrading

• New releases are published often, to ensure you have the latest version you can run:

Update-Module -Name "Logic.Monitor"

General Usage

Before you can use on module commands you will need to be connected to a LM portal. To connect your LM portal use the Connect-LMAccount command:

Connect-LMAccount -AccessId "lm_access_id" -AccessKey "lm_access_key" -AccountName "lm_portal_prefix_name"

Once connected you can then run an appropriate command, a full list of commands available can be found using:

Get-Command -Module "Logic.Monitor"

To disconnect from an account simply run the Disconnect-LMAccount command:

Disconnect-LMAccount

To cache credentials for multiple portals you can use the command New-LMCachedAccount, once a credential has been cached you can reference it when connecting to an lm portal using the -UserCachedCredentials switch in Connect-LMAccount.

Cached credentials are stored in a LocalVault using Microsoft's SecretManagement module. If its your first time using SecretManagement you will be prompted to set up a password for accessing your cached accounts in the LocalVault using this method.

New-LMCachedAccount -AccessId "lm_access_id" -AccessKey "lm_access_key" -AccountName "lm_portal_prefix_name"
Connect-LMAccount -UseCachedCredential

#Example output when using cached credentials
#Selection Number | Portal Name
#0) portalname
#1) portalnamesandbox
#Enter the number for the cached credential you wish to use: 1
#Connected to LM portal portalnamesandbox using account

Change List

7.5

New Cmdlets

• Get-LMServiceTemplate: Cmdlet to retrieve service template information.
• New-LMServiceTemplate: Cmdlet to create service templates.
• Remove-LMServiceTemplate: Cmdlet to remove service templates.

Note: These cmdlets are currently for internal use/testing only and do not support LMv1 or BearerToken. When a v3 variant is supported they will be updated to support those auth methods.

Bug Fixes/Changes

• Get-LMDeviceProperty: Fix bug with cmdlet that caused cmdlet to continuously loop when no matching property was found.
• New-LMPushMetricDataPoint: Fix bug caused by using users local time when deriving the datapoint timestamps instead of UTC.
• Fixed a few missing cmdlet alias changes and updated the documentation site to reflect all currently active cmdlets.

Major Changes in v7:

• API Headers: Updated all API request headers to use a custom User-Agent (Logic.Monitor-PowerShell-Module/Version) for usage reporting on versions deployed.
