Hi
I'm developing a different type of alerting scheme where I create events via the JSON API, and all this is working fine, however I'd like to be able to classify these events in different eventclasses.
I have tried to use the following post to /zport/dmd/service_router
{"action":"ServiceRouter","method":"addClass","tid":1,"type":"rpc","data":[{"contextUid":"/zport/dmd/Events","id":"NewEventClass"}]}
But I get this error back
{"uuid"=>"cdd5449a-bce8-42d2-82f9-a5c03b8aebb7", "action"=>"ServiceRouter", "result"=>{"msg"=>"Exception: Invalid service context UID: /zport/dmd/Events", "type"=>"exception", "success"=>false}, "tid"=>1, "type"=>"rpc", "method"=>"addClass"}
I have tried different values of context UID, but I have not been able to find a value that actually works...
Anybody knows how I may solve this
Using Zenoss Core 4.2.5
Regards
Thomas

Thomas -
The problem is that the ServiceRouter Class is for working on Services (ie Windows services):
For example, this would create a new Windows service named 'NewEventClass' under the root organizer:
{"action":"ServiceRouter","method":"addClass","tid":1,"type":"rpc","data":[{"contextUid":"/zport/dmd/Services/WinService","id":"NewEventClass"}]}
The EventsRouter class within the Zep Module is the only Json available for events and doesn't include any methods for adding event classes.

Thanks rob,
I was coming to that conclusion as well.. I've created https://jira.zenoss.com/browse/ZEN-15668 to request the option for creating eventclasses via the JSON API.
