500 error when using resource 'passwordlists' (webapi)

[choffmann]

Hello,

 

I am unable to create password lists using passwordlists resource via webapi.  I am using Powershell:

$jsonData = '
    {
	"PasswordList":"TEST LIST",
	"Description":"TEST"
    }
    '

    $PasswordstateUrl = 'https://*passwordstate url*/winapi/passwordlists'
    $result = Invoke-Restmethod -Method Post -Uri $PasswordstateUrl -ContentType "application/json" -Body $jsonData -UseDefaultCredentials
    $PasswordListID = $result.PasswordListID

Obviously I am replacing *passwordstate url* with the correct URL for my environment. Here is the exception I am getting:

Invoke-Restmethod : [{"errors":[{"message":"Invalid API Call"},{"phrase":"Error = Object reference not set to an instance of an object."}]}]
At line:2 char:15
+ ...   $result = Invoke-Restmethod -Method Post -Uri $PasswordstateUrl -Co ...
+                 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    + CategoryInfo          : InvalidOperation: (System.Net.HttpWebRequest:HttpWebRequest) [Invoke-RestMethod], WebException
    + FullyQualifiedErrorId : WebCmdletWebResponseException,Microsoft.PowerShell.Commands.InvokeRestMethodCommand

Outputting $error[0].Exception yields:

The remote server returned an error: (500) Internal Server Error.

 

My Passwordstate Build is 8501.

Hello,

 

Could you please refer to our API Documentation under the help menu - there are more parameters required when creating Password Lists. e.g. where to place it in the Navigation Tree, what permissions to apply, what settings for the Password List, etc.
