Trying to update SSID PSK receiving 404

smeyer1 — Sun, 13 Mar 2022 20:57:47 GMT

I can successfully call and get the data from getting a specific SSID network details, when i try to update the password {psk} i get a 404. Below is a snippet of the powershell code i am trying,

$deviceAPIUri = "$baseUrl$dashboardAPIVersion/networks/$MYNETWORK_ID/wireless/ssids/$GUEST_ID"

$response = Invoke-WebRequest -Uri $deviceAPIUri -Method GET -Headers $headers

# Check if Guest

if ($response.StatusCode -eq 200 ){

$ssidConfig = $response | ConvertFrom-Json

$ssidConfig.psk = "HelloThere"

#create JSON body with data to update.

$body = (ConvertTo-Json $ssidConfig)

Write-Host $body

$response1 = Invoke-RestMethod -Uri $deviceAPIUri -Method POST -Headers $headers -Body $body

write-host $response1

Please help. I have been able to use powershell and interact with the dashboard API without fail... until now.

You are probably adding empty data from the "full" get result.

If you just want to change the SSID, then just change the SSID

json body:

{'psk': 'HelloThere'}

I changed code to just send psk with same results. I get a 404 not found. The new json body: {"psk": "hello"}

I'm not sure about the response here and can't test it at the moment, but "hello" is to short for a psk. "HelloThere" did work fine for me

I updated to HelloThere and still receiving the 404. What is strange is the GET works without fail. It is only the post.

Found your issue... You have to use PUT and not POST
