Description

When attempting to add Installation Media via the REST API, the location_ids and organization_ids are ignored and not set with the arrays returning empty:

curl -i -k -u admin:example -H "Content-Type: application/json" -X POST -d '{"name":"CentOS", "os_family":"Redhat", "path":"http://mirrors.centos.org/7/os/x86_64", "location_ids":[2], "organization_ids":[1]}' https://localhost/api/media

I have verified the location and organization IDs are correct.

This is a documentation/API bug. Two bugs really. First, the API should throw a proper error. Secondly, the documentation indicates the correct syntax is:

medium[operatingsystem_ids]
optional , nil allowed
Validations: Must be an array of any type

However,

The syntax is:

curl -i -k -u admin:example -H "Content-Type: application/json" -X PUT -d '{"locations": [{"id":1}]}' https://localhost/api/media/30/

So, in summary:

1) API does not properly throw error
2) Documentation indicates wrong parameter name ("example_ids" should be "examples")
3) Documentation states this takes an array of any type; it does not. It takes an array of hashes

  • Project changed from Katello to Foreman

This isn't katello related, so moving to foreman

  • Is duplicate of Bug #6991: API v2 - support unwrapped POST/PUT parameters even though it's not documented added
Actions #5

Updated by Dominic Cleal about 7 years ago

  • Category set to API
  • Status changed from New to Duplicate
  • translation missing: en.field_release deleted (226)

Thanks for the report, this is tracked under #6991 (originally #8017).

To work around the issue, wrap the request in a {"medium":{..}} hash and the location_ids/organization_ids attributes will be correctly assigned.
