Unable to run software download via ansible.

Hi,

I'm working on automating software updates via ansible and having a key issue with the excution of the download command using the panos_op module.

I've been able to exceute "request system software check" to grab the latest avaialble software, but when i run the "request system software download version #.#.#" it errors with "msg": "URLError: code: 400 reason: Bad Request"

I have confirmed that the version i'm trying to download is listed, and i confirmed that if i run the command on the unit itself it works - it only fails when trying to exceute via ansible.

Heere is the output form the debug : I can confirm 8.1.0 is installed, and 8.1.2 is listed after running "request system software check"

Log output

fatal: [localhost]: FAILED! => {

"changed": false,

"invocation": {

"module_args": {

"api_key": null,

"cmd": "request system software download version 8.1.2",

"ip_address": "172.31.247.17",

"password": "VALUE_SPECIFIED_IN_NO_LOG_PARAMETER",

"username": "ansible-agent"

}

"msg": "URLError: code: 400 reason: Bad Request"

}

to retry, use: --limit @/home/baismanage/ansible/download_sw.retry

reolved this when i noted the panos_software module which handles upgrades.
