Hi @itzikc, with the REST API the call would look something like this:

https://{{host}}/restapi/v10.0/Policies/SecurityRules?name={{rulename}}&location={{location}}&vsys={{vsys}}&output-format=json

And the response:

               },
                "action": "drop",
                "log-start": "yes",
                "log-setting": "default",
                "disabled": "yes"
            }
        ]
    }
}

 

 

With the XML API the call would look like this:

https://{{host}}/api/?key={{key}}&type=config&action=show&xpath=/config/devices/entry[@name='localhost.localdomain']/vsys/entry[@name='vsys1']/rulebase/security/rules/entry[@name='{{rulename}}']

And the response:

            <action>drop</action>
            <log-start>yes</log-start>
            <log-setting>default</log-setting>
            <disabled>yes</disabled>
        </entry>
    </result>
</response>

 

 

Modify as appropriate for you environment, specifically the API version for the REST API, and add Device Groups parameters if this is via Panorama.
