Update application fails

andreizamfir16 — Fri, 01 Mar 2019 12:29:14 GMT

Hello I want to update a network application using a PUT request but I always get an Invalid Applicationanswer. I'm using version 1.2 of the Sandbox and I tried updating with different JSONs, one of them being this one:

[

{

"trafficClass":"BULK_DATA",

"category":"other",

"appProtocol":"tcp",

"tcpPorts":48766,

"subCategory":"other",

"categoryId":"04174897-f1cd-43d9-a148-f9a0117075a2",

"pfrThresholdJitter":1,

"pfrThresholdLossRate":50,

"pfrThresholdOneWayDelay":500,

"pfrThresholdLossRatePriority":2,

"pfrThresholdOneWayDelayPriority":3,

"id":"c664fa1c-f9e7-449c-a1af-daddc8c5ce5d",

"name":"newApp",

"ignoreConflict":true

}

]

What attributes does the JSON need to have in order to update an application?

Hi Andrei,

are you trying to create a custom application?

I cannot find an application with that "id" on the sandbox controller.

https://{{apic}}:{{port}}/api/v1/application/c664fa1c-f9e7-449c-a1af-daddc8c5ce5d

{

"response": {

"errorCode": "ResourceNotFound",

"message": "Unable to find ApicApplication with id c664fa1c-f9e7-449c-a1af-daddc8c5ce5d",

"detail": "Unable to find ApicApplication with id c664fa1c-f9e7-449c-a1af-daddc8c5ce5d"

"version": "1.0"

}

If you want to create an application it should be a POST, not PUT.

This is what worked for me. You also need an "transportIps", which is the IP address... in this case 0.0.0.0

POST https://sandboxapic.cisco.com/apic/api/v1/application

[{

"trafficClass": "BULK_DATA",

"helpString": "newApp",

"name": "newApp",

"appProtocol": "tcp",

"tcpPorts": "48766",

"transportIps": "0.0.0.0",

"pfrThresholdJitter": 1,

"pfrThresholdLossRate": 50,

"pfrThresholdOneWayDelay": 500,

"pfrThresholdJitterPriority": 1,

"pfrThresholdLossRatePriority": 2,

"pfrThresholdOneWayDelayPriority": 3,

"category": "other",

"subCategory": "other",

"categoryId": "f1283ed8-14c2-420e-8d3f-8e9a48931a79",

"engineId": 6,

"rank": 1

}]

I tried to update a custom application that was already on the server. I used POST on 'https://sandboxapic.cisco.com/api/v1/application' with this body:

[{

"trafficClass": "BULK_DATA",

"name": "abcdef",

"appProtocol": "tcp",

"tcpPorts": 10101,

"pfrThresholdJitter": 1,

"pfrThresholdLossRate": 50,

"pfrThresholdOneWayDelay": 500,

"pfrThresholdJitterPriority": 1,

"pfrThresholdLossRatePriority": 2,

"pfrThresholdOneWayDelayPriority": 3,

"category": "other",

"subCategory": "other",

"categoryId": "933a1df9-981c-4f66-a8c0-ba48645ce0be",

"engineId": 9,

"ignoreConflict": true

}]

I guess why you didn't find the application with that id is because the server resetted, as I can see it started to generate new keys again. I created the custom application again and it has the id "ec1dab5c-1c10-487e-8183-dc4e9c7a88dd" now. I wanted to update that application but I always get Application(s) Update Failed as "progress" with Invalid Application as the "failure reason" using the JSON provided in the question.
