Hi All

 

I am trying to create CNAME record from postman

below are the details

 

https://ddi.net/wapi/v2.10.5/record:cname?_return_fields%2B=name,canonical&_return_as_object=1
{
    "name":"testserver01",
    "canonical":"testserver01.za.net"
    
}

I am getting the below error while executing this

 

{
    "Error": "AdmConDataError: None (IBDataConflictError: IB.Data.Conflict:The action is not allowed. A parent was not found.)",
    "code": "Client.Ibap.Data.Conflict",
    "text": "The action is not allowed. A parent was not found."
}

Please if anyone one can let me know what is the issue with this

Hi,

 

The issue here is that the name you specify has to be in FQDN format. The error indicates that there is no zone because your name is not in FQDN format.

Here is a sample:

curl --location --request POST 'https://grid-master/wapi/v2.10/record:cname' \
--header 'Authorization: Basic auth=' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--data-raw '{
	"name":"cnametest.demo.info.com", 
	"canonical":"demo.info.com"
}'

Regards,

Krishna
