I want to restore the config backed up by fortigate using ansible

[room rabosan]

Hello!!

I want to restore the config backed up by fortigate using ansible

I'm using the Monitor API, which is supported by the REST API.

→Restore / Backup config with Monitor API

The Backup is complete, but I can't control the Restore well.

→HTTP Error 424:Failed Dependency

Could you please help me to solve it?
