Having trouble with panxapi

L1 Bithead

,

hello,

I'm experiencing an issue with panxapi where it returns a success code (19), but the result is actually not being received.  I'm using the -x and -g options to try and pull back the pre-rulebase on my panorama for a specific device group.

The xpath works in the API browser, but when I apply the same to the panxapi command I get nothing back.

Here is that xpath:

panxapi <hostname and key hidden to protect the innocent> -x -g /config/devices/entry[@name='localhost.localdomain']/device-group/entry[@name='device group name']/pre-rulebase/rules

Any help is appreciated... here's the output I get at the CLI:

get: success

<response status="success" code="19"><result/></response>

You will want double quotes around the xpath otherwise the single quotes will be eaten by the shell.
