Segment Error

Understanding the SegmentError exception.

 

When an unknown Segment is provided in the parameters to a Profile Extract request, a SegmentError will be raised to indicate that the request cannot be built. A SegmentError can be handled as follows.

Python Script

from pyracf import UserAdmin
from pyracf import SegmentError

user_admin = UserAdmin()

try:
    user_admin.extract("squidwrd", segments=["ovms","rso"])
except SegmentError as e:
    print(e.message)

Console Output

Unable to build Security Request.

'rso' is not a known segment for 'user'.
'ovms' is not a known segment for 'user'.
