Not able to create an Address Object using postman

Hi!

I'm using Postman to create an address object using Rest API.

This is what I'm posting:

*https://10.46.169.141/restapi/v9.1/Objects/Addresses?name={{"My-Address"}}&location=vsys&vsys=vsys1

This is my body:

{

"entry": {

"@name": "My-Address",

"ip-netmask": "8.8.8.8",

"description": "My test address"

}

This is my error:

{

"code": 3,

"message": "Malformed Command",

"details": [

{

"@type": "CauseInfo",

"causes": [

{

"code": 18,

"module": "panui_mgmt",

"description": "Malformed Command: Malformed Request."

}

]

}

]

}

I'm using JSON but I'm not sure what I'm missing.

Hi @sconejo, could it have been the braces {{}} being mixed up between the URL and the JSON? I would use variables in both or neither, and probably choose to use a variable in both. This works for example:

https://{{host}}/restapi/v9.1/Objects/Addresses?name={{object-name}}&location=vsys&vsys=vsys1

{ "entry": { "@name": "{{object-name}}", "ip-netmask": "8.8.8.8", "description": "My test address" } }
