Acquired licence does not appear in the licences retrieved from the gatekeeper

[santiagordguez]

Hi, @jbonnet,

After acquiring a private licence, it seems that the process goes well because the user_licence field changes to "licenced" but when the BSS requests for the licences (GET https://sp.int3.sonata-nfv.eu/api/v2/licences), the new licence does not appear (in that case, only the public existing one):

[
        {
        "status": "ACTIVE",
        "validation_url": null,
        "description": "Default description",
        "license_uuid": "d8057e2f-9201-4c13-9edb-0c6038186739",
        "service_uuid": "8e114dcd-339d-4f9a-a6b6-b08641228484",
        "license_type": "PUBLIC",
        "user_uuid": "9491158b-44fd-4dea-8cf1-0d02820ddab5"
    }
]

Hi, @srodriguezOPT The license_typeand validation_url fields are part of the NSD. So maybe the GK should include them in the restricted fields that are returned when the service is not licensed, and then the BSS can include them in the parameters when the licence is created. What do you think?

[santiagordguez]

Hi, @jbonnet The problem is that BSS doesn't have a database and does not store any information. It can only show the information retrieved from the GK so if we want to show these fields in the BSS, it's necessary to send them from the Gatekeeper as a "GET licences" response. Otherwise, a secondary "GET all services" request will be needed to match licences and services with the aim of showing these fields, increasing the number of requests.

Hi, @jbonnet An interesting field that is missing in the GET licences response is the related service name. The service uuid exists but the name could be helpful for the user:

[jbonnet]

Hi, @srodriguezOPT Ok, I'll open a specific issue to cover this missing service name. Problem with the GET /licences is... it lists all saved licences, but in this case the licence does not exist yet, right? You'll have to GET /services...

[santiagordguez]

Hi, @jbonnet

No, in this case, the licence already exists. This is the "already acquired" case. The case that you mention is the other tab, the "service licences that can be acquired..." and as you say, the BSS needs to make the GET /services request.

[jbonnet]

I'm checking this with @felipevicens, at the Licence Management module: it seems that there's a bug, and the private licence type plus the validation url fails to be saved...

[jbonnet]

Ok, @srodriguezOPT, please check if this has been solved.

[santiagordguez]

Hi, @jbonnet,

the acquired licence is still missing, only the public one appears. On the other hand, we don't have the service_name field yet.

[jbonnet]

@srodriguezOPT can you please post here the REST you're using? 'Cause creating a licence now seems ok:

{
    "description": "Default description", 
    "license_type": "PRIVATE", 
    "license_uuid": "28f4c338-a703-4f05-b6e8-04f811442424", 
    "service_uuid": "5cb12bf2-602a-47c8-b815-2e58ec446690", 
    "status": "ACTIVE", 
    "user_uuid": "54a3d0a0-dcb7-477b-aed0-abcb73768b2b", 
    "validation_url": "http://example.com"
}

And listing as well:

[
    {
        "description": "Default description", 
        "license_type": "PRIVATE", 
        "license_uuid": "28f4c338-a703-4f05-b6e8-04f811442424", 
        "service_uuid": "5cb12bf2-602a-47c8-b815-2e58ec446690", 
        "status": "ACTIVE", 
        "user_uuid": "54a3d0a0-dcb7-477b-aed0-abcb73768b2b", 
        "validation_url": "http://example.com"
    }
]

Thanks

Hi, @jbonnet

GET https://sp.int3.sonata-nfv.eu/api/v2/licences?limit=10&offset=0:

[
        {
        "status": "ACTIVE",
        "validation_url": null,
        "description": "Default description",

Sorry, @srodriguezOPT Can not reproduce... are you sure you're on INT3? Also: to add the service's name, a new request must be made. Can the BSS do that request (.../services/<service_uuid>)?

[santiagordguez]

Hi, @jbonnet

The BSS can do the invocation but it will increase the invocations number (limited by GK, right?). There are two options:

• a unique request retrieving all services
• a single request per every existing licence Is there no easy way to include the licence's service_name in the gatekeeper?

You can reproduce the issue directly in the BSS and check the invocations with the web developer tools (in chrome F12):

• Before acquiring a licence, the Licence Store -> User Licences menu never shows the public licences. We never discuss it and is not necessarily bad (the public licences can be considered user licences or not, it's only an interpretation thing)
• After acquiring the licence, the same menu (user licences) shows the private licence but as "PUBLIC"
