REST API: set: service

[hottija]

Hi,

I tried to set a new service using action=set and it gives me an error 

"set failed, may need to override template object first”

And if I use action=override

"Object cannot be overridden”

r

Can anyone help me to get this done?

https://[IP-ADDRESS]/api/?type=config&action=set&key=[AUTHKEY]&xpath=/config/devices/entry/vsys/entry[@name=%27vsys1%27]/service/entry/[@name=%27huuhaa%27]&element=<protocol>tcp<port>555</port></protocol>

I have tried the following syntax and it has worked for me

https://10.50.243.57/api/?type=config&action=set&key=LUFRPT1wTlZDZzlqdVhncWpMcE9QVG9LSTF0OTlBWG89M0R...

Let us know if that worked or not.
