Help using python for updating an access point management interface

Captain2 — Wed, 25 Aug 2021 17:16:40 GMT

Dear Members,

Trying to update an access point device management interface by using the function

import meraki

dashboard = meraki.DashboardAPI(api_key="my_api_key")

payload = {"wan1": {
    "usingStaticIp": False,
    "vlan": "100"
 }

result = dashboard.devices.updateDeviceManagementInterface(serial_key, payload)

print(result)

The result is the following output:

updateDeviceManagementInterface() takes 2 positional arguments but 3 were given

Process finished with exit code 0

When running the function below

result = dashboard.devices.getDeviceManagementInterface(serial_key)
print("Device Management Interface:")
print(result)

The result is the following output:

Device Management Interface:

{'wan1': {'usingStaticIp': False, 'vlan': None}}

It looks like I am using the correct structure but it doesn't work.

This are the arguments that the function expects:

Can you please help me find and correct it?

Best Regards,

import meraki

dashboard = meraki.DashboardAPI(api_key="my_api_key")
serial_key= "xxxxxxx"

payload = {
    "usingStaticIp": False,
    "vlan": "100"
 }

result = dashboard.devices.updateDeviceManagementInterface(serial_key, wan1=payload)

print(result)

Cant tell exactly, but it thinks the payload= are 2 args now and with the serial that makes 3

But If you move wan1= to the result it works.

There seems to be a closing brace missing.

payload = {"wan1": {
    "usingStaticIp": False,
    "vlan": "100"
 }

Should probably be:

payload = {"wan1": {
    "usingStaticIp": False,
    "vlan": "100"}
 }
