I don't understand how the Downtime API works and I'm trying to automate scheduling downti-CodePudding

The documentation is very unclear when it comes to the DataDog Downtime API. I've based my example off of the following documentation: https://docs.datadoghq.com/api/latest/downtimes/#schedule-a-downtime

I have the following environment variables set:

    DD_APP_TOKEN: Your datadog application token.
    DD_API_TOKEN: Your datadog API token.
    DD_SITE: The address of the DD API server.  Usually "datadoghq.com"

My example code:

import (
    "context"
    "encoding/json"
    "fmt"
    "github.com/DataDog/datadog-api-client-go/api/v1/datadog"
    "github.com/slack-go/slack"
    "os"
    "time"
)

func main() {
    ctx := datadog.NewDefaultContext(context.Background())

    var DataDogFiltersByTag = []string{
        "printing",
        "OTIS",
        "env:production",
    }

    Message := "Downtime Test"
    var ctime int64 = time.Now().Unix()     // Current Time
    var dtime int64 = ctime   (45 * 60)     // 45 minutes

    body := *datadog.NewDowntime() // Downtime | Schedule a downtime request body.
    body.Message = &Message
    body.Start = &ctime
    end := datadog.NullableInt64{}
    end.Set(&dtime)
    body.End = end
    body.MonitorTags = &DataDogFiltersByTag

    configuration := datadog.NewConfiguration()

    apiClient := datadog.NewAPIClient(configuration)
    resp, r, err := apiClient.DowntimesApi.CreateDowntime(ctx, body)
    if err != nil {
        fmt.Fprintf(os.Stderr, "Error when calling `DowntimesApi.CreateDowntime`: %v\n", err)
        fmt.Fprintf(os.Stderr, "Full HTTP response: %v\n", r)
    }
    // response from `CreateDowntime`: Downtime
    responseContent, _ := json.MarshalIndent(resp, "", "  ")
    fmt.Fprintf(os.Stdout, "Response from DowntimesApi.CreateDowntime:\n%s\n", responseContent)
}

This results in the following error message:

CodePudding user response：

Scope is a required parameter in datadog.CreateDowntime(). Adding body.SetScope([]string{"*"}) resolved my issue.
