Help with create api call

Despite me reading alot of documentation i have not really understood this.

Im trying to add a device in panorama, so i run this command from the cli.

set mgt-config devices 1234555 hostname 1234

This gives me the following output.

 (container-tag: mgt-config container-tag: devices container-tag: entry key-tag:                                                                            name value: 1234555 leaf-tag: hostname value: 1234) 
((eol-matched: . #t) (xpath-prefix: . /config) (context-inserted-at-end-p: . #f)                                                                           ) 
(mgt-config (devices (entry (@ (name 1234555)) (hostname 1234)))) 
(hostname 1234) 


<request cmd="set" obj="/config/mgt-config/devices/entry[@name='1234555']" cooki 
e="5357976790132914"><hostname>1234</hostname></request> 


2018-11-09 16:35:03 
<response status="success" code="20"><msg>command succeeded</msg></response>

So when i try to create a request of this it looks like this (if i take the url)

https://1.1.1.1/api/?type=config&action=set&Key=LUFRPT1FYXpRSlNvdjc2M1ZIVDdHZG40NWx2c1BlZ2c9bHAyUmhhRHBxRUptd1ZXNNNNnQrK2hnZz09&xpath=/config/mgt-config/devices/entry[@name '1111']

This give me a "error 12"

If i use the api browser it gives me a get command, but i want to add a new device. Any ideas?

I found this, however as BPry points out, the user dont put the answer in code box, so i still dont know the answer 🙂

According to that other post, looks like at the end of the code they are adding

devices&element=<entry>@name="SerialNumber"</entry>

Have you tried that or some variation of that?
