Targeting an application
Bravura Security Fabric provides the option of using the ticket target system name in event action fields in the Manage the system (PSA) module or Configure event (ITSM) module, rather than the program name. The security benefit is that all sensitive information (server address, admin credentials) is automatically passed to the program, rather than stored in the .py file in plain text.
For each application that uses a Python script to handle events, add a target system in Bravura Security Fabric (Manage the System > Resources > Target systems).
Type is Python Script (Ticket) .
Address lists Other settings to be passed to the Python script file. You must enter the settings in KVGroup format:
{setting1=value;setting2=value;}
For example:
{hostname=pythonapp;}
If the script does not require additional settings, set the address line to an empty KVGroup:
{}
Administrator ID and Password is the login ID and password for the target system administrator you configured earlier. If the target system does not require administrative credentials, set the Administrator ID and Password to a non-empty value.
Once the target is added, you can use the target ID to configure event actions in the Manage the system (PSA) module or Configure event (ITSM) module.
