Secret Server script

Testing procedure with PowerShell:

Here is a script that you can use to test your access from a client workstation.

1. Save the following code in a file called searchsecret.ps1.
2. Change the script as needed to match your Secret Server and username/password/domain.
3. Change the $searchterm to match your search.

This will allow you to test the connectivity between your workstation and your Secret Server.

$url = 'http://mysecretserver/webservices/sswebservice.asmx'
$username = 'myusername'
$password = 'mypassword'
$domain = 'mydomain'   # leave blank for local users

$searchterm = 'VPN'
$proxy = New-WebServiceProxy -uri $url -UseDefaultCredential

# get a token for further use by authenticating using username/password
$result1 = $proxy.Authenticate($username, $password, '', $domain)
if ($result1.Errors.length -gt 0){
$result1.Errors[0]
exit
}
else
{
$token = $result1.Token
}

# search secrets with our searchterm (authenticate by passing in our token)
Write-Host 'Searching for: ' $searchterm
$result2 = $proxy.SearchSecrets($token, $searchterm,$null,$null)
if ($result2.Errors.length -gt 0){
$result2.Errors[0]
}
else
{
Write-Host 'Got search results: ' $result2.SecretSummaries.length

# If you want the data as XML
# $xml = convertto-xml $result2.SecretSummaries -As string -Depth 20
# $xml

$result2.SecretSummaries | ForEach-Object { Write-Host 'SecretId:' $_.SecretId '  Name:' $_.SecretName  ' FolderId:' $_.FolderId }

# if ($result2.SecretSummaries.length -gt 0) {
# $result2.SecretSummaries[0]
# }
