API post with Python

[Craig]

I'm trying the following via a python script, but it is not working for me. Is netbox designed to accept posts to the API with anything other than curl? Am I missing something? I've also tried using data=data instead of json=data

import requests

url = 'https://<hostname>/api/dcim/sites'
data = {"name" : "my new site" , "slug" : "my-new-site"}
headers = {'X-CSRFToken': 'f8581ac22fca6067a3f15b8a3227138f08e8', 'Content-Type': 'application/json', 'Accept': 'application/json'}
response = requests.post(url, json=data, headers=headers, verify=False)

I've also tried it this way:

import requests

url = 'https://netbox-sf-1.mdtmi.org/api/dcim/sites'
data = {"name" : "my new site" , "slug" : "my-new-site"}
headers = {'Authorization': 'Token f8581ac22fca6067a3f15b8a3227138f08e8', 'Content-Type': 'application/json', 'Accept': 'application/json'}
response = requests.post(url, json=data, headers=headers, verify=False)

Here's a small snippet that I use...whats your response.status_code after the request?

apiurl = "http://netbox/api/dcim/sites/%s/" % siteid
payload = "{ \"name\":\"%s\", \"slug\":\"%s\", \"asn\":\"%s\" }" % (store, store, bgp_as)
r2 = requests.put(apiurl, headers={"Authorization": "Token aaaadddd", "Content-Type": "application/json"}, data=payload)

print r2.status_code

Oh maybe i could try putting the entire payload in quotes... I'll give that a shot. I'm getting return code 200. What do you get when the post is successful?

[Craig]

I tried with quotes around the whole payload and that didn't fix it either. I wonder if it has something to do with the verify=False. I unfortunately can't connect without it because there's not cert for the site.

[Craig]

I'm thinking more and more this might something with not liking that there's no valid cert chain. Can you try your snippet that works already, and add in verify=False to see what the result is? If that breaks it, then I can almost guarantee that's my problem.

Hey Patrick,

Can you try your snippet that works already, and add in verify=False as an additional argument to see if that breaks it\? It would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

-Craig
