action call

[suvdeshm]

Experts, I need help with this error-

I have code for calling action which gives error at the last line:-----

with ncs.maapi.Session(m, uinfo.username, 'python', groups=['ncsadmin']):

   with m.start_write_trans() as t:

      root = ncs.maagic.get_root(t)

      ip_node = ncs.maagic.get_node(t, "/act-key-gen:action")

      input_keygen = ip_node.keygen

      ip=input_keygen.get_input()

      ip.request = request_list

The error is:-----

ncs.maagic.MaagicError: Node has no attribute 'request'

The yang for the action being called is:-----

module act-key-gen {

namespace "http://example.com/act-key-gen";
prefix act-key-gen;

container action {
   tailf:action keygen {
     tailf:actionpoint keygen;
      input {
          list request {
             leaf module {
                type modules;
             }
          leaf char-set {
               type charset;

          }

The error message seems to be misleading but you cannot assign to a list this way in the maagic API. I think that is the problem.
If you were to switch this round
request_list = ip.request
the you can create elements in the list
individual_request = request_list.create()
and assign values to the leaves in the created elements
