DNAC Site Profile API documentation

pinglis — Tue, 01 Mar 2022 21:19:39 GMT

I found the following Device onboarding example on DevNet:

Device Onboarding - Cisco DNA Center Platform - Document - Cisco DevNet

It uses the Site Profile API to create a Site(Network) Profile and with an onboarding template.

I want to do something similar but using DayN templates. Unlike other APIs this one doesn't appear to be documented within DNA Center and I can't find any documentation about it elsewhere.

I would like to understand the structure of the Json object I need to pass to the API to create the site profile.

Also if there any other calls I can make, e.g. to update a profile or get details of an existing profile,

We are running version 2.2.3.4

Hello,

I know this response is late compared to the original post.

But i ran into the same issue while working on Version 2.3.3.6.

After some time I found this undocumented API Call to find the complete informations about a specific Site(Network) Profile :

https://{{dnac}}/api/v1/siteprofile/{{siteProfileId}}?populated=true

This will produce a payload like this :

{ "response": { "siteProfileUuid": "{{siteProfileId}}", "version": 41, "name": "{{siteProfileName}}", "namespace": "switching", "status": "final", "lastUpdatedBy": "raphcpv", "lastUpdatedDatetime": 1679393420330, "profileAttributes": [ { "key": "site.settings", "attribs": [ ..... ] }, { "key": "day0.templates", "attribs": [ { "key": "device.family", "value": "Switches and Hubs", "attribs": [ { "key": "device.series", "attribs": [ { "key": "device.type", "attribs": [ { "key": "template.id", "value": "{{templateId}}", "attribs": [ { "key": "template.name", "value": "{{templateName}}" } ] } ] } ] } ] } ] }, { "key": "cli.templates", "attribs": [ { "key": "device.family", "value": "Switches and Hubs", "attribs": [ { "key": "device.series", "attribs": [ { "key": "device.type", "attribs": [ { "key": "template.id", "value": "{{templateId}}", "attribs": [ { "key": "template.name", "value": "{{templateName}}" }, { "key": "template.version", "value": "1" } ] } ] } ] } ] } ] } ], "siteCount": 1 }, "version": "1.0" }

As you can see you have a profile attributes called cli.templates, you can use it to configure you Day-N template, using my payload as an example.

Hey there,

Can you help me with understand what I would need to put this together in a python script? I want to create a script for a site, and create a network profile for that site, then assign the DAY-N template to that site, programmatically, so its ready to deploy when I need it. Can you help please? I'm kinda new to this aspect, and I am getting to grips with a lot of it, but creating new ones is a bit of a mystery at this point.

Thanks
