Build Status Test Coverage

This project is a PowerShell module for interacting with the BMC Remedy ARS Rest API. It has been tested against a system that is running Remedy v9. Results with other versions/implementations of Remedy may vary.

Getting Started

After installation, you will need to set your Remedy API URL and credentials. You do this by running:

Set-RemedyAPIConfig -APIURL https://yourremedy.url.whatever/arapi/yourmidtearserver -IncidentURL https://yourremedy.url.whatever/arsys/forms/cmdbapppd/HPD:Help%20Desk

Which will then prompt you to enter credentials. These are saved as an encrypted string to your userprofile directory by default (you can redirect this by using -File).

Examples

Get-RemedyTicket

You can get a specific (incident) ticket by partial or full Incident Number as follows:

Get-RemedyTicket -ID 12345

This will return a small object with a default set of frequently needed properties available. To return an object with all of the properties available via the API add the -Full switch:

Get-RemedyTicket -ID 12345 -Full

There are many other parameters for filtering/retrieving resuts in other ways e.g by -Team, -Submitter, -Customer etc. Enter Help Get-RemedyTicket -Full for full details.

Get-RemedyWorkLog -ID 12345 -Type KnownError

You can filter for a specific type of worklog by specifying -WorkLogType. E.g:

Get-RemedyChange -ID 12345 | Get-RemedyWorkLog -WorkLogType 'Resolution'

There are many other parameters for filtering the results of Get-RemedyWorkLog. Enter Help Get-RemedyWorkLog -Full to learn more.

Get-RemedyTeam

You can get the members of a specified Remedy Support Team with this command.

Get-RemedyTeam -Name Windows

This actually makes two calls to the API, it queries the CTM:Support Group schema to get the ID of the Support Group, then uses this to query the CTM:Support Group Association schema to get it's associated members.

Get-RemedyPerson

This returns the details of a person from Remedy. This can be a customer or a member of staff:

Get-RemedyPerson -Name 'Joe Bloggs'

The cmdlet searches the 'Full Name' field and partial strings are accepted:

Get-RemedyPerson -Name 'John Sm'

If you wish to only return Staff members you can use the -Staff switch to filter the result to just these:

Get-RemedyPerson -Name 'Tony Stark' -Staff

Get-RemedyInterface

You can see a list of available Remedy interfaces/forms by running:

Get-RemedyInterfaces

This command is just helpful if you want to explore the API, understand the schema/fields and potentially extend this module.
