addCommonPhoneConfig ignoring vendorConfig info?

[JasunKAR]

Howdy!  Adding everything I need through a python script to spin up a site in CUCM.  When adding a common phone config it seems to be ignoring a vendorConfig piece I want to modify.

# Create commonPhoneConfig siteCode_locationType Common Phone Profile

commonPhoneConfig = {

    'name': ( globalName + ' Common Phone Profile' ),

    'description': ( globalName + ' Common Phone Profile' ),

    'dndOption': 'Ringer Off',

    'dndAlertingType': 'Beep Only',

    'alwaysUsePrimeLine': 'Default',

    'alwaysUsePrimeLineForVoiceMessage': 'Default',

    'vendorConfig':

        {

            'sshAccess': '1',     

            'lineMode': '1'

        }

    }
It all adds great with no issues.  But the lineMode/SSH doesn't get toggled.  In XML it works fine:

<commonPhoneConfig>
    <name>TEST2 Common Phone Profile</name>
    <description>TEST2 Common Phone Profile</description>
    <dndOption>Ringer Off</dndOption>
    <dndAlertingType>Beep Only</dndAlertingType>
        <vendorConfig>
            <sshAccess>1</sshAccess>
            <lineMode>1</lineMode>
        </vendorConfig>
</commonPhoneConfig>

That works fine.  Just not the python option.  Thoughts?

Also, all the lines have ' and , after then but this post seems to be combining them into ; /shrug

Hello,

I'm not a CUCM expert but I found some other discussions here on the Cisco Community Forums, which may be helpful:

• AXL vendorConfig
• axl_add_Phone_vendorConfig.py script on Cisco DevNet GitHub repo
• AXL vendorConfig error via Python and Zeep for Webex Kit in CUCM v12.5

Hope this helps!

Thanks alex you pointed me in a good direction.  I got it to work through AXL using this code from that second link:

lineMode = etree.Element( 'lineMode' )

lineMode.text = '1'

vendorConfig = []

vendorConfig.append( lineMode )

xvcType = client.get_type( 'ns0:XVendorConfig' )

commonPhoneConfig[ 'vendorConfig' ] = xvcType( vendorConfig )

The python script to create the commonPhoneConfig now properly sets the line mode.  Appreciate the help!
