I needed a way to generate 1000+ sessions in the Bb sessions table in development. However, development doesn't garner that many active users. I hit upon using webdav to generate sessions via curl. Here's a simple bash script to do so. Assumption is there's at least one userid you have the password for.
for i in {1..1000};
do echo $i;
curl 'https://bbserver/bbcswebdav/users/userid' -u userid:pw ;
done
Hello,
ReplyDeleteI'm trying to figure out how to use feed files with CURL to post to the Endpoint URLs. I'm not clear how to accomplish this. Could you help me out??? Thanks!!
Hi Josh,
ReplyDeleteI'll have to start a new blog post on the SP8 SIS data integrations, and what we've learned from the few webinars and testing we've done. 8-)

Specifically, Testing XML/HTTP SIS Integrations covers the CURL bit.
