Assumption: Your ZM server is accessible at
http://server/zm
-> replace this with your actual path
- Step 1: Open up a browser
- Step 2: Log into ZM
- Step 3: Open another tab in the same browser (IMPORTANT: Has to be from the same browser you logged into ZM)
- Step 4: Type in
http://server/zm/api
--> you should see a page with green bars. If you see red, your APIs are not working - Step 5: Type in
http://server/zm/api/host/getVersion.json
--> you should see a response like:
{
"version": "1.30.0",
"apiversion": "1.0"
}
version/apiversion may be different. If you don't see such a response, your APIs are not working
- Step 6: Type in
http://server/zm/api/monitors.json
--> you should see a JSON list of monitors. If you see no monitors, the login you used does not have read access to monitors. Or you have no monitors. Please correct user permissions
- Please make sure the user credentials you use has:
- view or edit access to monitors
- view or edit access to streams
- view or edit access to system
- If you are accessing zmNinja remotely, make sure you first access ZM remotely from your desktop browser, ensure it works and then use the same DNS/IP for zmNinja
- I'm not a magician. I don't know why something is not working if you don't provide sufficient inputs. Enable debug logs in zmNinja Developer options and then email me the logs. Thats a good start.
- Its often hard to infer a problem especially when its due to some unique apache/nginx mungling you might have done but haven't told me about it. In such cases, try and give me remote access to your ZM for a day. Configure a limited user with just one monitor. It will save hours of frustration (mostly on my side). Thanks
