      Hello, I am trying to do a create host api call to eventually automate imaging some hardware. I can get data from fog all day long but when it comes to posting data to create a host it gives me this error: “error”: “Required database field is empty” this is what my post looks like:

       $CreateHostJson = @{
                                  "name"=  "$vmname"
                                  "description"=  "$Description"
                                  "primac" =  "$MacAddress"
                                  "imagename" =  "$ImageName"    
                                  }
              $createHostURL = $baseUri +"/host/create/"
              $createHostResult = Invoke-RestMethod -Uri $createHostURL -Method POST -Headers $headers -body $CreateHostJson -ContentType "application/json"
      

      Any help would be appreciated

        Change primac to macs: [“$MacAddress”]

          Thanks, Is there any reason the Image name wouldn’t get populated? This works minus the image name:
          $HostJson = @{
          “name”= $vmname
          “description”= $Description
          “macs” = @($MacAddress)
          “imagename” = $ImageName
          }
          $CreateHostJson = ConvertTo-Json($HostJson)
          $createHostURL = $baseUri +“/host/create”
          $createHostResult = Invoke-RestMethod -Uri $createHostURL -Method POST -body $CreateHostJson -Headers $headers -ContentType “application/json”

            Got it, this is the syntax from Powershell

            $HostJson = @{
            “name”= $vmname
            “description”= $Description
            “macs” = @($MacAddress)
            “imageID”= $Image.id
            “imagename” = $ImageName
            }
            $CreateHostJson = ConvertTo-Json($HostJson)
            $createHostURL = $baseUri +“/host/create”
            $createHostResult = Invoke-RestMethod -Uri $createHostURL -Method POST -body $CreateHostJson -Headers $headers -ContentType “application/json”
