@Harold Preston III
Thanks a lot for your detailed, clear & colourful answer.
However, I have a few comments.
All the following GET return a '404 not found' on IOS-XEv 16.5.1b:
On the other hand, I was able to retrieve some configuration/operational data with a different datastore keyword than the ones which you suggested: api

As a summary:
- I am unable to access the data with your constructs on IOS-XE 16.5.1 nor on NX-OS 9k 7.0(3)I6(1)
- I am able to access the data with a completely different URI with a different data store keyword on IOS-XE 16.5.1
Hence the questions:
- Does that mean that your generic URIs only apply to IOS-XE 16.6.1+?
- What about other OS platforms such as NX-OS, IOS-XR, ASA? Should we be able to use your generic URI with those too?
