Hello,
We developed a reporting tool and I need to access to the log event details from the Publication Report output when the publication is in status failed. I found that there is a class named EventMonitor with a method GetEventDetail which requires the eventId as a parameter, my question is how do I get the eventId for a publication? Any other ideas on how to get the event details for publications?
Hi Damaris - Recently back from holiday...
In short there is Language-level field FISHEVENTID on PublicationOutput objects.
Some more background...
The key cmdlet to know what data you can retrieve is: Get-IshTypeFieldDefinition | Out-GridView
Or if you are an API guy it is Settings 2.5 RetrieveFieldSetupByIshType
The cmdlet result will give you a view and might have lead you to
Some PowerShell ISHRemote code to get you going could be
# All versions and publication outputs are returned
$objects = Get-IshPublicationOutput -LogicalId GUID-xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx
# As EventMonitor is nothing more than centralized logging opened up over a user interface, it means that not all logging is there forever
# In this case I know that some version/outputformat was recently published
$objects[57].fisheventid
# Passing this on
Get-IshEvent -MetadataFilter (Set-IshMetadataFilterField -Level Progress -Name EVENTID -Value $objects[56].fisheventid)
Best wishes,
Dave
Hi Dave,
I was having some issues to obtain the log from the event id but finally I could it. I got the FISHEVENTID from the GetMetadata method of the PublicationOutput and then I used it to get the event description from the EventMonitor with the method RetrieveEventsByProgressIds.
Thanks!
