Stay updated about modifications on SoftLayer API, read our page to know more information about these updates.

This week we have some additions to SoftLayer API, most related to Software Licenses.

SoftLayer_Account

Was added the getVmWareActiveAccountLicenseKeys that returns an array of strings that is a collection of active VMware software account license keys.

SoftLayer_Notification_Occurence_Event

Notification of occurrence events, are related when can cause a disruption on a service, and now were added a property acknowledgedFlag (and a method to get its value getAcknowledgedFlag) that indicates whether or not this event has been acknowledged by the user. My guess is it’s for SoftLayer internal control.

SoftLayer_Software_AccountLicense

The service now has the getAllObjects method to get all account licenses.

SoftLayer_User_Customer

On this datatype was added managedByOIDCFlag, honestly, I have no idea what it means, do you? :)

New Types

Related to license additions were added two data types SoftLayer_Billing_Item_Software_License and SoftLayer_Container_Product_Order_Software_License.

The first one is an specialization of SoftLayer_Billing_Item_Software that contains resource that is a relationship to a software license billing item. The second one brings no additional specialization on the class.

See you next week!
