Hi,

Could you please add the Content-Type headers and try your call again.

Here is a sample code that you can use. I've highlighted the text you need to add to your code.

import requests
requests.packages.urllib3.disable_warnings()  # Disable SSL warnings in requests #
url = "https://127.0.0.1/wapi/v2.10/grid/b25lLmNsdXN0ZXIkMA:picocelldhcp?_function=servicerestart"
payload = "{\"mode\":\"GROUPED\",\"services\":\"ALL\",\"restart_option\":\"RESTART_IF_NEEDED\"}"
headers = {'content-type': "application/json"}
response = requests.request("POST", url, auth=('admin', 'Infoblox'), data=payload, headers=headers, verify=False)
print(response.text)

Hope this works,

Thank you Krishna

Version 2.10 not supported

So I tried with V2.3.1

'https://127.0.0.1/wapi/v2.3.1/grid/b25lLmNsdXN0ZXIkMAicocelldhcp?_function=restartservices'

payload = "{\"mode\":\"GROUPED\",\"services\":\"ALL\",\"restart_option\":\"RESTART_IF_NEEDED\"}"

headers = {'content-type': "application/json"}

response = requests.request("POST", url, auth=('admin','infoblox'), data=payload, headers=headers, verify=False)

got this error

>>> print(response.text)
{ "Error": "AdmConProtoError: List value expected for field: services",
"code": "Client.Ibap.Proto",
"text": "List value expected for field: services"
}
