Workflow to automatically approve your VCF Automation Inbox pending approvals [CB10146]

Just a very quick post on how to approve all the pending approvals in your Aria\VCF Automation Service broker Inbox.

Download this package which contains an orchestrator workflow to get you started. The process is fairly simple. Just make a REST call to get all the pending approvals and then make calls to approve them in a loop.

Get all pending approvals

JavaScript

const opMethod = "GET";

var pendingApprovals = [];

status = "PENDING";
var opUrl = "/approval/api/approvals?requestState="+status+"&apiVersion=2020-11-01";

var opResponse;
var responseJson;
var content;
var count;
var page = 0
var headers = new Properties();
headers.put("Authorization", "Bearer " + cspAuthToken);

do {
	opResponse = System.getModule("com.vmware.pso.rest").executeTransientRESTOperation(
	    cspBaseUrl,null,null,opMethod,opUrl,null,headers,null,null);	

	if (opResponse.statusCode >= 400) {
	    throw "Failed to get cloud accounts (" + opResponse.statusCode + " Error). Details: " + opResponse.responseString;
	}
	
	//System.debug(opResponse.responseString);
	responseJson = JSON.parse(opResponse.responseString);
	var 
	count = responseJson.numberOfElements;
	//System.error(responseJson.pageable.pageNumber)
	var totalPages = responseJson.totalPages
	content = responseJson.content;
	pendingApprovals = pendingApprovals.concat(content);
	page++
	//System.error(pendingApprovals.length)
	opUrl = "/approval/api/approvals?requestState="+status+"&page="+page+"&apiVersion=2020-11-01";
	//opUrl += "&offset="+pendingApprovals.length// + pendingApprovals.length;
	//System.debug("Count so far: " + pendingApprovals.length);
} while (page <= totalPages)

return pendingApprovals;
