Api device disable

Good Day Anton

I did check what it return and implemented what it could be:

import requests
import json

url = "http://domain.co.za:8082/api/devices/1"
user = 'admin'
password = 'password'

data = {
"attributes":{},
"category":"default",
"contact":"",
"disabled":"true",
"geofenceIds":{},
"groupId":1,
"id":1,
"lastUpdate":"2018-05-17T19:48:17+02:00",
"model":"Huawei",
"name":	"Huawei",
"phone":"+27877778523",
"positionId":21926,
"status":"online",
"uniqueId":671996
}

headers = {"Content-Type": "application/json"}

response = requests.post(url, auth=(user, password), headers=headers, data=data)

print(response.text)

But this give me an error:

HTTP 405 Method Not Allowed - NotAllowedException (...)

Thank You

Why are you using POST instead of PUT? Documentation clearly says that you should be using PUT method.

Good Day Anton

Please see following Python Code and see if you can see why it returns not JSON Object on PUT:

import requests
import json

URL1 = "http://domain:8082/api/devices"
URL2 = "http://domain.co.za:8082/api/devices/3"

USER = 'admin'
PASSWORD = 'password'
DEVICE = '6889910284'

PARAMS = {'uniqueId':DEVICE}

HEADERS = {"Content-Type": "application/json"}

response1 = requests.get(URL1, auth=(USER, PASSWORD), headers=HEADERS, params = PARAMS)

datax = response1.json()

print(datax)

DATA = {
'attributes':	{},
'category': datax[0]["category"],
'contact': datax[0]["contact"],
'disabled': datax[0]["disabled"],
'geofenceIds':{},
'groupId': datax[0]["groupId"],
'id': datax[0]["id"],
'lastUpdate': datax[0]["lastUpdate"],
'model': datax[0]["model"],
'name': datax[0]["name"],
'phone': datax[0]["phone"],
'positionId': datax[0]["positionId"],
'status': datax[0]["status"],
'uniqueId': datax[0]["uniqueId"]
}

response2 = requests.put(URL2, auth=(USER, PASSWORD), headers=HEADERS, data=DATA)

datay = response2.json()

print(datay)

Thank You
