Developer & APIs

Essentially what the title says. I'm attempting to programmatically get the list of colocation users and their roles/permissions. It doesn't appear there's an easy way to do this with the existing API. That said, when I view my users in the portal ordinarily, I see GET /api/ecp/users/getUsersSo it's definitely there, I'm assuming it's just not available to normal users, only to Equinix internally. Any chance someone here has an idea?

Hi,we have a presence in different Equinix data centers and retrieve billing information via the Billing v2 API. We observed that the information we obtain for the Japan invoice (and that one only) has inconsistent (dare I say wrong?) tax amount values across time:For invoices from 2024-02 (oldest I have) until 2024-05 (which is not downloadable anymore due to the 12 month limit but I have a local copy) the Japanese line items behave exactly like all others we can observe, namely: non-zero taxAmount (10% of recurringAmount) and recurringAmount + taxAmount = totalAmount.For invoices from 2024-06 until 2024-08 (both in the snapshot I had from a few months ago and the one I just took now) the Japanese line items now still has a non-zero taxAmount (10% of recurringAmount) but totalAmount = recurringAmount. Checking a few entries we saw that the netAmount is the same as in previous entries which makes me assume that the totalAmount does not include any tax amount.For invoices from 2024-09 o

Hi allI am testing how to create inbound and outbound orders via the API.I am using the equinix sandbox and following https://developer.equinix.com/dev-docs/ecp/getting-started/schedule-shipments#step-4-schedule-inbound-shipmentI am able to get a token, list users, list sites, etc.When I try to create an inbound shipment, I have the following$ curl -X POST "https://sandboxapi.equinix.com/colocations/v2/orders/shipments" -H "content-type: application/json" -H "authorization: Bearer TOKEN" -d @equinix-inbound.json -v < HTTP/1.1 500 Internal Server Error < Content-Length: 187 < Content-Type: application/json; charset=utf-8 < ETag: W/"bb-fFnLakTrYhk69LoXetj3crBTst4" < x-powered-by: Express < x-apigee-message-id: 79ff47bf-5867-4677-bf9c-02c3631e25ac < x-request-id: 79ff47bf-5867-4677-bf9c-02c3631e25ac < x-apigee-dp-color: 174 < x-apigee-region: us-west1 < x-apigee-organization: eqx-apg-prod < x-apigee-environment: extsbx < x-apigee-proxy: /organizat

Recently I have been having issues with the Shipments v1 endpoint for pending storage (https://api.equinix.com/v1/orders/shipment/pendingStorage), receiving 503 service unavailable.Searching the catalog, there is no 503 defined so not entirely sure what this error is stating.Looking to see if this is a bug or if the endpoint was deprecated without notice.Thank you

Hi I couldn't find a contacts for Equinix IXP support with its route-servers, I have a question about BGP communities support but can't see where can I open a ticket through the IX portal

I'm writing a script to see how oversubscribed my fabric ports are, by totaling the bandwidth of connections on each port. I'm having trouble with the pagination, no matter what I set for offset and limit in the query parameters, it always seems to come back with offset=0.https://api.equinix.com/fabric/v4/connections/search{'next': '/search?offset=20&limit=20', 'offset': 0, 'total': 193, 'limit': 20}https://api.equinix.com/fabric/v4/connections/search?offset=20&limit=20{'next': '/search?offset=20&limit=20', 'offset': 0, 'total': 193, 'limit': 20}https://api.equinix.com/fabric/v4/connections/search?offset=40&limit=20{'next': '/search?offset=20&limit=20', 'offset': 0, 'total': 193, 'limit': 20}https://api.equinix.com/fabric/v4/connections/search?offset=60&limit=20{'next': '/search?offset=20&limit=20', 'offset': 0, 'total': 193, 'limit': 20}https://api.equinix.com/fabric/v4/connections/search?offset=80&limit=20{'next': '/search?offset=20&limit=20', 'off

Currently I'm using the API token associated with my personal login to Equinix for the Fabric API. What's the best way to make an API token for a service sharable by a group of people at my company? Should I just make an Equinix login like first name Cloud last name Fabric, and then make an API token from that, or is there another way?

Hello Equinix,I have a question regarding the creation of a new, redundant connection to Azure with API v4. From "Guide to v3-to-v4 APIs Migration" I see that I should use the connections/bulk endpoint. In the Knowledge Center for "Connect to Microsoft Azure" the simple connection endpoint is shown. Are both valid? Specifically, can I use 2 calls to the connection endpoint to built a redundant connection to Azure? In the API Reference I didn't find any reference for creating connections using the bulk endpoint. That's what got me confused (among other things).Thanks for your help

Hello everyone,I'm working with Yahoo on a project that involves monitoring power data for a large number of PDUs—more than 1000—every hour. We've hit a snag, though. The API we're using has a daily limit of 1000 calls.Here's the current API we're using: curl -s -X GET "https://api.equinix.com/power/v1/current?accountNo=${EQUINIX_ACCOUNT_NUMBER}&ibx=${EQUINIX_IBX}&levelType=CIRCUIT&levelValue=${LEVELVALUE}" I've tried adding multiple values to "levelValue," but it's not working as expected.The challenge is that we have to check so many PDUs every hour that making a single call per PDU isn't practical. If we go that route, we'll hit the API limit in just one hour.I found an alternative approach on the forum:   curl -s -X POST "https://api.equinix.com/power/v1/current" -H "content-type: application/json" -H "Authorization: Bearer ${1}" -d '{ "accountNo": "'${2}'", "ibx": "'${3}'", "levelType": "circuit" }' This method provides data for all PDUs in a single response.

Hello, I have a question. ## Question.Is there a best practice to get all CIRCUIT,SENSOR data? ## BackgroundWe are developing and operating a monitoring system for current and temperature sensors in a Datacenter. We would like to import data from Smartview into our monitoring system and are considering using the API. We need data for each CIRCUIT and SENSOR, but if we use the following API, we can only get summary data for the specified unit. === e.g. Current (Power_v1) request ❯ curl --request GET \ --url 'https://api.equinix.com/power/v1/current?accountNo={accountNo}&ibx={ibx}&levelType=ibx&levelValue={ibx}' \ --header 'accept: application/json' \ --header 'authorization: Bearer {bearer}' \ --header 'content-type: application/json' Next, we considered how to obtain a list of CIRCUIT,SENSOR from the HierarchyAPI and request one of each. However, we found that the API limits the number of requests to 1,000 per day. We have more than 1,000 CIRCUITs and SENSORs that we want t

I am trying to generate token using this method but in Postman: Access Token using grant_type = client_credentials (Recommended). POST 'https://api.equinix.com/oauth2/v1/token' -H "content-type: application/json" -d '{ "grant_type": "client_credentials", "client_id": "******", "client_secret": "****" }' I have the body set as specified in the link: https://developer.equinix.com/docs?page=/dev-docs/fabric/overview but when I execute the query I get this error: { "errorDomain": "apps-fqa", "errorTitle": "Unable to Process the Request", "errorCode": "S1002", "developerMessage": "Failed to execute the ExtractVariables: extractjsonparams", "errorMessage": "Unable to Process the Request, Please try again later." } I have a client_id and client_sercret generated and have tested it with Terraform. What am I missing?Thanks!

Hi, I have a circuit and I'm trying to change the bandwidth using PATCH /fabric/v4/connections/{id} Here's the payload: { "op": "replace", "path": "/bandwidth", "value": 900} But I keep getting this error code and there seems to be no way around it.

I created the following query filter to use with the https://api.equinix.com/fabric/v4/connections/search API to retrieve all "non-deprovisioned" connections: { "filter": { "AND": [ { "property": "/operation/equinixStatus", "operator": "=", "values": [ "PENDING_APPROVAL", "PROVISIONING", "PROVISIONED", "NOT_PROVISIONED", "REJECTED", "PENDING_BGP_PEERING" ] }, { "property": "/aSide/accessPoint/location/metroCode", "operator": "=", "values": [ "SV" ] } ] }, "pagination": { "limit": 3000, "offset": 0 }, "sort": [ { "property": "/name", "direction": "DESC" } ] } The results of the abov

How can I access utilization data for a Virtual Circuit connection using the APIs?

We've noticed a change in the API response since the introduction of pagination. When requesting the configured services (using /ecx/v3/l2/buyer/connections?pageNumber={page}&pageSize=1) we receive the same service multiple times. When we move to a next page the advance the pointer to the next record which makes us believe this is actually the "offset". So pageNumber points to the n-th record and pageSize determines how many they return, this means that size=100 on page 1 (start from 0) you get only 1 new record and 99 old ones. ex. if you want record 100, with page size 100, you don't need page 1, you need page 100.I'm guessing this counts as a bug in the API, no?

Hi, We noticed that on 12 February you introduced a breaking change on the API which is undocumented. When doing https://developer.equinix.com/catalog/buyerv3 the response does no longer contain "isLastPage" but contains "last" which is not documented. { "first": "TRUE", "last": "FALSE", "number": 0, "numberOfElements": 20, "size": 20, "sort": [ { "ascending": "FALSE", "descending": "TRUE", "direction": "DESC", "ignoreCase": "FALSE", "nullHandling": "NATIVE", "property": "created_date" } ], "totalElements": 8051, "totalPages": 403 } Can we have an explanation on this and get it back aligned with the documentation?

After I submit an order through API, do I get a notice about the ETA?Upon the completion of my order, do I get a notification?

Hello guys, I am new in using curl and I have a qeustion. How it looks the final example autharization form + get smart hands type.   curl -X POST 'https://api.equinix.com/oauth2/v1/token'-H "content-type: application/json"-d '{"grant_type": "client_credentials","client_id": "ABCDE12345","client_secret": "FGHIJ67890"}' and    curl -X GET "https://api.equinix.com/v1/orders/smarthands/types"-H "content-type: application/json"-H "authorization: Bearer qwErtYxxxxxxxcdefGHI" I don't understand how to combine these two example in one and why I have to use second time -H "authorization: Bearer qwErtY8zyW1abcdefGHI"

Hi,Is it possible to create a private connection to Salesforce via the Equinix fabric API? (Or indeed any other APIs)?I checked the documentation here: https://docs.equinix.com/en-us/Content/Interconnection/Fabric/connections/Fabric-connect-salesforce.htmhttps://developer.equinix.com/docs?page=/dev-docs/fabric/overviewBut couldn’t find an API guide as there is for creating connectivity to other cloud service providers. E.g. Connect to AWSNB: I also tried to query using your chat on the dev platform, but this is only a basic bot that can answer only the most basic of queries.Regards,Dave
