Deactivating nodes in Puppet using PowerShell

[Ryan Murphy]

Ok folks, since I got help last time, thought I'd try again.  This time I'm trying to deactivate nodes instead of signing their certs.

Here is the code, the first two invoke-restmethods work as expected. But when I try to call the command to Deactivate the node it throws a Schema error.

$ErrorActionPreference = 'continue'

[System.net.ServicePointManager]::ServerCertificateValidationCallback = {$true}

$console_server = 'puppetmater.domain'

$node = "node.domain"

$action = @{desired_state='revoked'}

$json = $action | ConvertTo-Json

$url = "https://${console_server}:8140/puppet-ca/v1/certificate_status/${node}"

echo $url

$results = Invoke-RestMethod -Uri "$url" -body $json -method PUT -Certificate (Get-PfxCertificate -FilePath \\server\puppet-certs\Non-Production\certname)

$url = "https://${console_server}:8140/puppet-ca/v1/certificate_status/${node}"

$response = Invoke-RestMethod -Uri "$url" -method DELETE -Certificate (Get-PfxCertificate -FilePath \\server\puppet-certs\Non-Production\certname)

echo $response

$deactivateAction = @{command="deactivate node"

                        version='3' 

                        payload=@{

                            certname="$node"

                            }

                         }

$json2 = $deactivateAction | ConvertTo-Json

$commandURL = "https://${console_server}:8081/pdb/cmd/v1"

echo $json2

$response = Invoke-RestMethod -Uri $commandURL -Method Post  -ContentType 'application/json' -Body $json2 -Certificate (Get-PfxCertificate -FilePath \\server\puppet-certs\Non-Production\certname.pfx)

echo $response

I figured it out.  Found the correct version of the documentation that showed the proper URL.  Although I think it could be written a little better.  But oh well
