Elasticsearch [6.8] REST with PowerShell create snapshot failed to authenticate user - powershell

Question

I'm creating PS script to automate creating snapshots of selected indices. This is my code:
# Input variables
$elastic_host = "localhost:9200";
$repo_name = "daily_backup";
$username = "elastic";
$password = "elastic";
$indices = "kibana_sample_*,test";
# Create repo if not exists
$url_put_repo = "http://$elastic_host/_snapshot/$repo_name";
$body_put_repo = #{
"type" = "fs";
"settings" = #{
"location" = "$($repo_name)_location";
"compress" = $True;
"chunk_size" = "100MB";
}
} | ConvertTo-Json;
Write-Host (Invoke-ElasticSearch $url_put_repo $username $password $body_put_repo);
# Create snapshot
$time_stamp = Get-Date -Format "yyyyMMddHHmmss";
$url_put_snapshot = "http://$elastic_host/_snapshot/$repo_name/$($time_stamp)?wait_for_completion=true";
$body_put_snapshot = #{
"indices" = $indices;
"ignore_unavailable" = $True;
"include_global_state" = $False;
} | ConvertTo-Json;
Write-Host (Invoke-ElasticSearch $url_put_snapshot $username $password, $body_put_snapshot);
function Invoke-ElasticSearch([string]$url, [string]$user, [string]$pass, [string]$body) {
$credPair = "$($user):$($pass)";
$encodedCredentials = [System.Convert]::ToBase64String([System.Text.Encoding]::ASCII.GetBytes($credPair));
$headers = #{
"Authorization" = "Basic $encodedCredentials";
"Content-Type" = "application/json";
};
$responseData = Invoke-WebRequest -Uri $url -Method Put -Headers $headers -Body $body -UseBasicParsing -Verbose;
return $responseData;
}
Problem is that first part is working "Create repo if not exists", second part "Create snapshot" is failing:
Invoke-WebRequest : {"error":{"root_cause":[{"type":"security_exception","reason":"failed to authenticate user [elastic]","header":{"WWW-Authenticate":"Basic realm=\"security\" charset=
\"UTF-8\""}}],"type":"security_exception","reason":"failed to authenticate user [elastic]","header":{"WWW-Authenticate":"Basic realm=\"security\" charset=\"UTF-8\""}},"status":401}
When I call Invoke-ElasticSearch with no body it is not failing:
Invoke-ElasticSearch $url_put_snapshot $username $password, $body_put_snapshot
I tried this JSON in Kibana Dev Tools and it is working - I don't know where is problem. Any idea?

Answer 1

It was typo ofcourse...
Before:
Invoke-ElasticSearch $url_put_snapshot $username $password, $body_put_snapshot
After:
Invoke-ElasticSearch $url_put_snapshot $username $password $body_put_snapshot
