Nutanix Permission Tester

Test Nutanix Prism Central and Prism Element API reachability and read permissions.

Features

• Python standard library only
• JSON output support
• Safe, audit-oriented behavior
• Placeholder configuration for Nutanix environments

Configuration

Edit nutanix_permission_tester.py and configure the placeholder values. Do not commit real API tokens, passwords, UUIDs, IP addresses, or internal infrastructure details to a public repository.

Usage

python nutanix_permission_tester.py --json-file permission-report.json

Security Notes

The script currently disables SSL certificate verification by using ssl._create_unverified_context(). This may be useful in lab environments, but it is not recommended for production. For production use, configure proper certificate validation.

Disclaimer

This script is provided as an example. Test it in a safe environment before using it against production Nutanix infrastructure.
