Examples

This example shows how to create a network address domain for the given specification by submitting a POST request on the REST resource using cURL. For more information about cURL, see "Install and Use cURL".

cURL Command

curl -X POST "http://hostname:port/InventoryRSOpenAPI/resourceInventoryManagement/version/networkAddressDomain -H 'content-type: application/json' -H credentials -d @nadcreate.json

where:

  • hostname is the URL for the UIM REST server.
  • port is the port for the UIM REST server.
  • version is the version of the API you're using.
  • credentials is the base64 encoding of the user ID and password joined by a single colon (ID:password). See "Authentication and Authorization".
  • nadcreate.json is the JSON file that specifies the network address domain to create.

Example of Request Body

This shows an example of the contents of the nadcreate.json file sent as the request body. 

{
   "@type": "NetworkAddressDomain",
   "@baseType": "LogicalResource",
   "name": "ABC_Inc",
   "description": "Private Domain for ABC_Inc",
   "resourceSpecification": {
      "id": "PrivateIPAddressDomainSpec",
      "href": "http://hostname:port/InventoryRSOpenAPI/specification/PrivateIPAddressDomainSpec",
      "name": "PrivateIPAddressDomainSpec"
   },
   "networkAddressType": "IP_SUBNET"
 }
