Error in execute script powershell in saltapi

[Antonio Remigio]

Hi,

I'm search solution on group, but not finded!

I am utilizing
cherry_py of salt-api but i have error when i execute a script powershell by postman using JSON.

The following exemple:

{"client": "local",
    "username": "salt",
    "password": "salt",
    "eauth": "pam",
    "tgt": "ms-01",
    "fun": "cmd.run 'E:\\scripts\\rpo-promotion.ps1 xpto' shell='powershell' runas='sa...@domain.local' password='salt'"
}

Return:
{
    "return": [
        {
            "ms-01": "'cmd.run 'E:\\scripts\\rpo-promotion.ps1 xpto' shell='powershell' runas='sa...@domain.local' password='salt'' is not available."
        }
    ]
}

If i execute in fun: 'test.pin', return is success.

{"client": "local",
    "username": "salt",
    "password": "salt",
    "eauth": "pam",
    "tgt": "ms-01",
    "fun": "test.ping'"
}

Return:

{
    "return": [
        {
            "ms-01": true
        }
    ]
}

Salt-master = Centos 7
Salt-minion (ms-01) = Windows Server 2022 Standard

Somebody passed for this?

Thank's.

Evening Antonio!

"fun" is the function to be called e.g. "cmd.run". The arguments to the
function must be sent via their own keys see e.g.
https://docs.saltproject.io/en/latest/ref/netapi/all/salt.netapi.rest_cherrypy.html#authentication

Since you're using shell=powershell e.g. that's a kwarg so that will be:
[...]
"fun": "cmd.run",
"kwarg": {
"shell": "powershell"
}
[...]

Note that the rpo-promotion is not a "kwarg" but a "arg" so you need to
put it there.

BR,
- Simon

Thank you so much, @Simon!

It worked as you mentioned.

Sending exemplo:

{"client": "local",
    "username": "salt",
    "password": "salt",
    "eauth": "pam",
    "tgt": "ms-01",

    "fun": "cmd.run",
    "kwarg": {
        "shell": "powershell.exe",
        "runas": "salt",
        "password": "salt"
    },
    "arg": "E:\\scripts\\rpo-promotion.ps1 xpto"
}

PS: The user and password of session "kwarg" is of Windows where the minion is configured.

Thanks again.
