Name Data Type PermissionsDescription
name<String>Read-writeName for the responder action. Must begin with a letter, number, or the underscore character (_), and must contain only letters, numbers, and the hyphen (-), period (.) hash (#), space ( ), at (@), equals (=), colon (:), and underscore characters. Can be changed after the responder policy is added. The following requirement applies only to the NetScaler CLI: If the name includes one or more spaces, enclose the name in double or single quotation marks (for example, "my responder action" or my responder action).
type<String>Read-writeType of responder action. Available settings function as follows: * respondwith ;lt;target;gt; - Respond to the request with the expression specified as the target. * respondwithhtmlpage - Respond to the request with the uploaded HTML page object specified as the target. * redirect - Redirect the request to the URL specified as the target. * sqlresponse_ok - Send an SQL OK response. * sqlresponse_error - Send an SQL ERROR response.<br>Possible values = noop, respondwith, redirect, respondwithhtmlpage, sqlresponse_ok, sqlresponse_error
target<String>Read-writeExpression specifying what to respond with. Typically a URL for redirect policies or a default-syntax expression. In addition to NetScaler default-syntax expressions that refer to information in the request, a stringbuilder expression can contain text and HTML, and simple escape codes that define new lines and paragraphs. Enclose each stringbuilder expression element (either a NetScaler default-syntax expression or a string) in double quotation marks. Use the plus (+) character to join the elements. Examples: 1) Respondwith expression that sends an HTTP 1.1 200 OK response: "HTTP/1.1 200 OK\\r\\n\\r\\n" 2) Redirect expression that redirects user to the specified web host and appends the request URL to the redirect. "http://backupsite2.com" + HTTP.REQ.URL 3) Respondwith expression that sends an HTTP 1.1 404 Not Found response with the request URL included in the response: "HTTP/1.1 404 Not Found\\r\\n\\r\\n"+ "HTTP.REQ.URL.HTTP_URL_SAFE" + "does not exist on the web server." The following requirement applies only to the NetScaler CLI: Enclose the entire expression in single quotation marks. (NetScaler default expression elements should be included inside the single quotation marks for the entire expression, but do not need to be enclosed in double quotation marks.).
htmlpage<String>Read-writeFor respondwithhtmlpage policies, name of the HTML page object to use as the response. You must first import the page object.<br>Minimum length = 1
bypasssafetycheck<String>Read-writeBypass the safety check, allowing potentially unsafe expressions. An unsafe expression in a response is one that contains references to request elements that might not be present in all requests. If a response refers to a missing request element, an empty string is used instead.<br>Default value: NO<br>Possible values = YES, NO
comment<String>Read-writeComment. Any type of information about this responder action.
newname<String>Read-writeNew name for the responder action. Must begin with a letter, number, or the underscore character (_), and must contain only letters, numbers, and the hyphen (-), period (.) hash (#), space ( ), at (@), equals (=), colon (:), and underscore characters. The following requirement applies only to the NetScaler CLI: If the name includes one or more spaces, enclose the name in double or single quotation marks (for example, "my responder action" or my responder action).<br>Minimum length = 1
hits<Double>Read-onlyThe number of times the action has been taken.
referencecount<Double>Read-onlyThe number of references to the action.
undefhits<Double>Read-onlyThe number of times the action resulted in UNDEF.
builtin<String[]>Read-onlyFlag to determine whether responder action is built-in or not.<br>Possible values = MODIFIABLE, DELETABLE, IMMUTABLE
__count<Double>Read-onlycount parameter

Operations

(click to see Properties)

ADD | DELETE | UPDATE | UNSET | RENAME | 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>.
