vManage API vedge update

Delo Arnautalic — Fri, 21 Nov 2025 10:37:50 GMT

Hi,

I am trying to update the c8000v device using Vmanage (version 20.15.4) API. The software 17.15.04.0.6839 has already been uploaded to vManage.

If i try the /device/action/image-download API i get an error to check the device input parameters???

If i try using the /device/action/install API nothing happens on the vManage (no tasks) but i get the task ID in the Postman???

Did anyone successfully updated sd-wan devices using API?

On the first one, try and change the version type to remote, in your payload - "versionType": "remote" per https://developer.cisco.com/docs/sdwan/20-15/sd-wan-vmanage-v20-15/

Hard to say with no errors, i saw this on the change log for these endpoints https://developer.cisco.com/docs/sdwan/20-15/sd-wan-vmanage-v20-15-api-change-log/#breaking-changes-POST-device-action-install

Hi, I have replaced "vmanage" with "remote" for "versionType" in both my API calls, and this time I see the task in the vManage for both API calls, but both times I get the same error "Please check the device action input parameters before re-trying".

Hmmm .. we need to see more logs from your client side imo. Launch the Postman Desktop app and then follow these steps:

Open View > Developer
Select View Logs in Finder (macOS) / View Logs in Explorer (Windows) / View Logs in File Manager (Linux). Your OS file manager will open the logs directory which contains your application logs.
Select all files and create a single .zip file.

Its a big of a pain, but you can do this via the UI and monitor the action in developer tools, checking what payload is sent during this operation.
