Name Data Type Permissions Description
name <String> Read-write Unique name for the expression. Not case sensitive. Must begin with an ASCII letter or underscore (_) character, and must consist only of ASCII alphanumeric or underscore characters. Must not begin with 're' or 'xp' or be a word reserved for use as an expression qualifier prefix (such as HTTP) or enumeration value (such as ASCII). Must not be the name of an existing named expression, pattern set, dataset, stringmap, or HTTP callout.

Minimum length = 1
value <String> Read-write Expression string. For example: http.req.body(100).contains("this").
comment <String> Read-write Any comments associated with the expression. Displayed upon viewing the policy expression.
clientsecuritymessage <String> Read-write Message to display if the expression fails. Allowed for classic end-point check expressions only.

Minimum length = 1
type <String> Read-write Type of expression. Can be a classic or default syntax (advanced) expression.

Possible values = CLASSIC, ADVANCED
hits <Double> Read-only The total number of hits.
pihits <Double> Read-only The total number of hits.
type1 <String> Read-only The type of expression. This is for output only.

Possible values = CLASSIC, ADVANCED
isdefault <Boolean> Read-only A value of true is returned if it is a default policy expression.
builtin <String[]> Read-only Indicates that a variable is a built-in (SYSTEM INTERNAL) type.

  • ADD
  • DELETE
  • UPDATE
  • UNSET
  • GET (ALL)
  • GET
  • COUNT

Some options that you can use for each operations:

  • Getting warnings in response: NITRO allows you to get warnings in an operation by specifying the 'warning' query parameter as 'yes'. For example, to get warnings while connecting to the NetScaler appliance, the URL is as follows:

    http:// <netscaler-ip-address> /nitro/v1/config/login?warning=yes

    If any, the warnings are displayed in the response payload with the HTTP code '209 X-NITRO-WARNING'.

  • Authenticated access for individual NITRO operations: NITRO allows you to logon to the NetScaler appliance to perform individual operations. You can use this option instead of creating a NITRO session (using the login object) and then using that session to perform all operations,

    To do this, you must specify the username and password in the request header of the NITRO request as follows:

    X-NITRO-USER: <username>

    X-NITRO-PASS: <password>

    Note: In such cases, make sure that the request header DOES not include the following:

    Cookie:NITRO_AUTH_TOKEN= <tokenvalue>

*Note: * Mandatory parameters are marked in red and placeholder content is marked in green
