Inventory API Update

[quinniedid]

I have been battling this for the last few days. I don’t know if my json body is wrong or what?

I am trying to update the inventory item “other2” with an IP address

When I try to test doing this from Postman, I have tried formatting different ways and no luck. I am hoping you can help point me in the right direction. I am also using powershell to perform a fair amount of automation

$params = @{
    Uri         = "http://<URL>/fog/host/283"
    Headers     = @{ 
    'fog-api-token' = "$fog_api_token"
    'fog-user-token' = "$fog_user_token"
    'Content-type' = "application/json"
     }
    Method      = 'PUT'
    Body = $jsonbody
}
Invoke-RestMethod @params

JSON Body:

{
    "inventory":  {
                      "other2":  "10.1.5.35"
                  }
}

@george1421 Do you know of any pointers you could provide me?

@quinniedid I’m sorry I don’t use the API so I’m little to no help.

There are articles in the fog wiki that lay out what is needed: https://news.fogproject.org/simplified-api-documentation/

And @JJ-Fullmer has a bunch of experience using the FOG API.

@JJ-Fullmer I am sure you are incredibly busy. I was just wondering if you had a few minutes to help me out with the FOG API and changing inventory values?
