Create Host with Extensible Attributes using WAPI [ Edited ]

[#1]

Hello,

I want to create a new Host with Extensible Attributes in DDI Infoblox using WAPi via CURL, but I get an error message:

curl -k1 -u username:password -X POST https://10.61.20.40/wapi/v2.3.1/record:host?_return_fields=ipv4addrs -H "Content-Type:application/json" -d '{"name":"Test20.int.kn","ipv4addrs":[{"ipv4addr":{"_object_funct  ion":"next_available_ip","_result_field":"ips","_object":"network","_object_parameters": {"network": "10.61.232.0/23","network_view":"default", "*Automatisierbar":"Yes"}}}]}'

{ "Error": "AdmConProtoError: Invalid value for ipv4addr: {\"_parameters\": {\"exclude\": [\"9.0.0.1\", \"9.0.0.2\"]}, \"_object\": \"network\", \"_object_funct ion\": \"next_available_ip\", \"_result_field\": \"ips\", \"_object_parameters\": {\"*Automatisierbar\": \"Yes\", \"network\": \"10.61.232.0/23\", \"network_view\": \"default\"}}: Must be string type",
  "code": "Client.Ibap.Proto",
  "text": "Invalid value for ipv4addr: {\"_parameters\": {\"exclude\": [\"9.0.0.1\", \"9.0.0.2\"]}, \"_object\": \"network\", \"_object_funct ion\": \"next_available_ip\", \"_result_field\": \"ips\", \"_object_parameters\": {\"*Automatisierbar\": \"Yes\", \"network\": \"10.61.232.0/23\", \"network_view\": \"default\"}}: Must be string type"
}

What is wrong with my Command. I had checked the json data part and it is valid. Anyone an Idea? Thank you!

There’s either a problem with your pasting or perhaps it’s the issue itself but “function” is split into two parts in both the command pasted and in the text of the error. I tried the command and did not get the same error so this leads me to believe you have copy and pasted the command or dome something to cause the extra spaces (or tab) between “funct” and “ion”.
