#24 ars.GetEntry('BMC.CORE:BMC_ComputerSystem..) does not work

[Anonymous]

Below code gives me error

import sys
import logging
from pyars import cars, erars, ars

ars = erars.erARS()

ars.Login('someserver1:2001', 'user', 'password') # login to the server

ars.logger.setLevel(logging.DEBUG)

entry = ars.GetEntry('BMC.CORE:BMC_ComputerSystem',{'AssetIDLowerCase':'abcd'},None)

if(not(entry is None)):
    for fieldid in entry.keys():
        print '%d: %s' % (fieldid, entry[fieldid])
ars.Logoff()

Error

What are you trying to achieve?
ars.GetEntry expectes to receive the name of a form and an entryid.
If you want to retrieve specific entries (e.g. using a query), you need to use ars.GetListEntryWithFields.
Please have a look at the tutorial (http://pyars.sourceforge.net/tutorial.html) which tries to explain the most common use cases and how to implement them.

Hope this helps,
