[API] How to get new ticket ?

[GospodinAbdula]

Hello! I need get new ticket use old ticket only, not password.
i use API for monitoring qm.

auth in API:

curl -k --data "username=root&password=toor&realm=pam" https://localhost:8006/api2/extjs/access/ticket

Tickets have a limited lifetime of 2 hours.

Can you say me how to get new ticket?

I readed in wiki - http://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Proxmox_VE_API

NOTE: Tickets have a limited lifetime of 2 hours. But you can simple get a new ticket by passing the old ticket as password to the /access/ticket method.

i tried:

curl -s -k -b "PVEAuthCookie=PVE:root@pam:5.....+Xtdd+qS3iCkQ==" https://localhost:8006/api2/extjs/access/ticket

and

curl -s -k -d "username=root&password=PVE:root@pam:5.....+Xtdd+qS3iCkQ==&realm=pam" https://localhost:8006/api2/extjs/access/ticket

But it didnt work!

Please help me!

Looks correct to me. You need to call that before the ticket expires.

What error message to you get exactly?

Yes I do it before the expiration

If i send command without parameter realm=pam in --data

root@proxmox:~# curl -k --data "username=root&password=PVE:root@pam:53D5D......36sgiXA==" https://localhost:8006/api2/extjs/access/ticket
{"success":0,"status":500,"data":null,"message":"value 'root' does not look like a valid user name\n"}

if i add parameter realm=pam to data

root@proxmox2:~# curl -k --data "realm=pam&username=root&password=PVE:root@pam:53D5.....sgiXA==" https://localhost:8006/api2/extjs/access/ticket
{"success":0,"status":500,"data":null,"message":"Authentication failure\n"}

You need to correctly encode (--data-urlencode) parameters, for example:

 curl -k --data "username=root" --data "realm=pam" --data-urlencode "password=PVE:root@pam:53D73D28::Mxcq/v+X...jdg==" https://lola:8006/api2/extjs/access/ticket

Hello everyone,
i tried this command with a cron job every hour

curl -k --data "username=root" --data "realm=pam" --data-urlencode "password=PVE:root@pam:53D73D28::Mxcq/v+X...jdg==" https://lola:8006/api2/json/access/ticket

but after two hours the first ticket expires.
Is the above command works?
