How to to request Action with parameters by Python in an NSO action

[yongz2]

We want to call an action with parameters by Python in an NSO action, There is an maapi.requestAction(parms,"url") in Java, like : maapi.requestAction(params, "/ncs:devices/ncs:partial-sync-from")
Do we have an similarity method in Python? It's would be really appreciate for your idea.

There are two options:

1. You have a _ncs.maapi.request_action call, there is an example in 

./service-provider/mpls-vpn-layered-service-architecture/create-vpn.py

2. With maagic you can call actions directly on on the objects, if you have a device node dev you can simply do:

        r = dev.sync_from()

Hi, I was looking for syntax for partial sync_from in maagic, couldn't figure out so far. Does anyone have it handy?
Thanks
