Hello,

I an doing a traffic query through the API like this

I get the response with a job id.

But when i try to get the content of the job ID

I get the following error

<msg>

<line>show-> query -> id is unexpected </line>

</msg>

</response>

I was able to duplicate the error you were seeing and was able to get the query results using the following command:

//firewall/api/?&type=op&cmd=<show><query><result><id>JOB-ID</id></result></query></show>&key=API_KEY

//firewall/api/?&type=op&cmd=<show><query><result><id>JOB-ID</id></result></query></show>&key=API_KEY

This command resulted in an error.

<msg>

<line>

<![CDATA[ show -> query -> result is unexpected ]]>

</line>

</msg>

</response>

//firewall/api/?&type=op&cmd=<show><query><id>JOB-ID</id></query></show>&key=API_KEY

This command worked.

//firewall/api?/type=log&action=get&job-id=JOB&key=API_KEY

This command worked, too.

Tested in 5.0.3.

Your usage is correct. Can you confirm the job id value you provided is the same as the one returned by the previous query.
