POST Alerts Key Rotation Test All

The POST /Alerts/KeyRotation/TestAll method is used to test all SSHClosed The SSH (secure shell) protocol provides for secure connections between computers. It provides several options for authentication, including public key, and protects the communications with strong encryption. key rotation alerts. This method returns HTTP 200 OK on a success with details about the SSH key rotation alert or a response of “NoActionTaken” if no keys match the test criteria entered.

Tip:  Alerts are generated when an SSH key is approaching or has reached its stale date as defined by the timeframe configured in the alert and the SSH key lifetime (the Key Lifetime (days) application setting).

By default, a maximum of 100 alerts will be generated during a test. The maximum value is configurable with the Key Rotation Alert Test Result Limit setting in Keyfactor Command application settings (see Application Settings: Console Tab). If more than 100 alerts are generated, no email messages will be sent and you'll have the opportunity to view the first 100 alerts generated.

If you're using an event handler, the event handler is run and the handler actions taken (PowerShell script run, event log message written) when the test is run. This is true regardless of the setting of the SendAlerts flag.

Tip:  The following permissions (see Security Roles and Claims) are required to use this feature:
/monitoring/alerts/read/
/monitoring/alerts/test/
