Failing to clear primary and IPCC extension using Python

[Elliot Dierksen]

I am working on a python script to migrate users from one cluster to another. I am able to change the value of home cluster and the IM&P enable user value, but I haven't figured out how to clear the primary and IPCC extensions. This is what I was trying.

            # Execute the updateUser request
            resp = source_axl.updateUser(
                userid = userid,
                #associatedDevices = None,
                homeCluster = False,
                imAndPresenceEnable = False,
                primaryExtension = None,
                ipccExtension = None
            )

 It tried setting the extensions to {} or [], but no joy.

I opened a thread in one of the DevNet forums and got the answer I needed.

Here is the solution in python.

            resp = source_axl.updateUser(
                **{ 'userid': userid,
                'homeCluster': 'false',
                'imAndPresenceEnable': 'false',
                'primaryExtension': {
                    'pattern': '',
                    'routePartitionName': '',
                },
                'ipccExtension': {
                    '_value_1': '',
                    'uuid': '',
                },
                }
            )
