Python request POST method with ACI

[ITforever]

Hello,

I am trying do something simple - just to create an object (tenant, ANP, EPG, etc.) using python requests. I am wondering what I do wrong:(

My GET requests are working fine.

Considering that I have already successful login/cookies, my code is as below:

======================================================================

pyTnData = {"fvTenant": {"attributes": {"name": "WXYZ"}}}
jsonTnData = json.dumps(pyTnData)
print(type(jsonTnData)) # comes as a string type

createTn = requests.post('http://10.11.12.13/api/class/fvTenant.json', cookies=cookies, json=jsonTnData, verify=False)

======================================================================

Thanks.

Hello!

The URL in your post is in the form of a class query. To post, you should post the object ( a tenant) to it's parent object which would be uni. So the path of the URL should be something like /api/mo/uni.json

Thanks for your answer. Yes, it works now.

I corrected the url path to pint to  the parent object (uni) and also corrected the protocol to https. It was http before and didn't work with it.
