delete IP address with REST API

kkcfung · ‎01-24-2020

I used the following link for references https://community.infoblox.com/t5/API-Integration/The-definitive-list-of-REST-examples/td-p/1214 and https://www.infoblox.com/wp-content/uploads/infoblox-deployment-infoblox-rest-api.pdf.

I tried to delete an existing IP address, but it does not work. The search IP address worked as expected.

curl -k -u admin:infoblox -X GET 'https://x.x.x.x/wapi/v2.9/search?address=172.0.2.6&_return_as_object=1'

{

"result": [

{

"_ref": "record:host/ZG5zLmhvc3QkLm5vbl9ETlNfaG9zdF9yb290LjAuMTU3OTE5NTYwNjA1NC5oMTcyLTAtMi1hMQ:h172-0-2-a1/%20",

"ipv4addrs": [

{

}

],

"network": "172.0.2.0/24",

"network_view": "default"

}

]

}

curl -k -u admin:Infoblox -H 'content-type: application/json' -X DELETE "https://x.x.x.x/wapi/v2.9/record:host/ZG5zLmhvc3QkLm5vbl9ETlNfaG9zdF9yb290LjAuMTU3OTE5NTYwNjA1NC5oMT..."

also trying the following but no success:

In the search you are using a lowecase "infoblox" for the password but in the first delete example you are using a capitalized "Infoblox" for the password. The password is case-sensitive. Can you double-check?

In the second example, the URL must be https, it will not work with unencrpyted http. Can you try it with https?

I tried two different tags, but still has errors.

The correct tag should be the record:host.
