Using curl to either check or download a script file in Otter

[scusson_9923]

Hi,

I am trying to conditionally run Get-Asset in an Otter script based on the existence of a script in the default raft. I am using curl and regardless if the script is there or not, I always get a positive return. Example (foo.config does not exist):

curl.exe --head "https://<server_url>/0x44/Otter.WebApplication/Inedo.Otter.WebApplication.Pages.Scripts.ListScriptsPage/DownloadAsset?id=Default::BinaryFile::<path_to_script>/foo.config"
HTTP/1.1 302 Found

How can I either conditionally run Get-Asset or use curl to check for a script in the raft?

Thanks,
Scott

Hi @scusson_9923 ,

That is an internal/web-only API url, so it wouldn't behave quite right outside a web browser.

I can't think of an easy way to accomplish what you're looking to do.... if you could share some of the bigger picture, maybe we can come up with a different approach / idea that would be easier to accomplish.

Thanks,
Alana

Hello Alana,

We want to add to our current functionality and make it backward compatible. We have an archive job running in Jenkins which then uploads a config file to Otter and triggers a job. That Otter job runs remotely using Otter\PowerShell scripts with that config file and an input. What we want to do is have a related archive job with its own config file use the same Otter\PowerShell scripts. The issue is, we cannot guarantee that both config files will exist. It would help greatly if we can conditionally get an asset.

Thanks,
Scott
