Continued troubleshooting API issues

[vbabson]

After having managed to get the API connectivity working I am unable to perform certain actions.

I am able to successfully query hashlists, tasks, and other multiple objects in the system, but I cannot determine how to create a simple hashlists.

Using the example JSON from the User API PDF:

Code:

{
"section": "hashlist",
"request": "createHashlist",
"name": "API Hashlist",
"isSalted": false,
"isSecret": true,
"isHexSalt": false,
"separator": ":",
"format": 0,
"hashtypeId": 3200,
"accessGroupId": 1,
"data": "JDJ5JDEyJDcwMElMNlZ4TGwyLkEvS2NISmJEYmVKMGFhcWVxYUdrcHhlc0FFZC5jWFBQUU4vWjNVN1c2",
"useBrain": false,
"brainFeatures": 0,
"accessKey": "mykey"
}

I initially get:

Code:

The response is:{"section":"hashlist","request":"createHashlist","response":"ERROR","message":"Hashcat brain cannot be used if not enabled in config!"}

So I comment out the usebrain=false line, then I get:

Code:

The response is:{"section":"hashlist","request":"createHashlist","response":"ERROR","message":"Invalid query!"}

How can I determine the exact error or proper API calls?

Thanks,
