CM API Call to Add roles

[#1]

Hi Team,

I have been working with CM API lately to do some automations. One of the task that I have now is to be able to automate role instance addition on an existing Cluster host, for ex: spining a nodemanager on a cluster host.

I tried searching for CM API calls for the same but couldn't find anything directly related , maybe you know?

Thanks in advance

Regards

Please review the CM API docs 

• for CM 5.x http://cloudera.github.io/cm_api/apidocs/v19/index.html
• for CM 6.x https://archive.cloudera.com/cm6/6.2.0/generic/jar/cm_api/apidocs/index.html

Posting a role object will make CM create that role e.g. http://cloudera.github.io/cm_api/apidocs/v19/path__clusters_-clusterName-_services_-serviceName-_rol...

You may want to look into this end-to-end example in python as well.

Thanks , I was using that endpoint for GET so far, didn't realised could use POST calls on that as well.

I'll give it a go and get back.
