I am currently in the process of planning to upload a custom webpage to my Palo Alto device. However, I would like to automate this process through an API call. I have the HTML content for the webpage stored in a variable and I would like to upload it to the following path. Any references or suggestions in this regard would be greatly appreciated.
The manual update path is as follows:
Device -> Response Page -> URL Filtering and Category Match Block Page
There is already one predefined file in place, so if there's a way to update that without uploading a new file, that would also be acceptable for me.
I would be very grateful for any suggestions or assistance. Thank you in advance.

Hi @Indranil-Chowdhury ,
Here is an example for the application block page. https://live.paloaltonetworks.com/t5/api-articles/modify-response-pages-from-xml-api/ta-p/62167
You would only need to modify the syntax to do the same for the URL block page.
For drive-by browsers, here is a cool doc on creating custom response pages. https://live.paloaltonetworks.com/t5/blogs/tips-amp-tricks-how-to-customize-your-response-pages/ba-p... That's where I found the example above.
Thanks,
Tom

Thankyou so much for your response.
I am preparing the script for uploading the HML page to box under url category.
I need help to understand where i am going wrong here. I am sharing code below.
$deviceUrl = "https://1.2.3.4:4443/esp/restapi.esp?key=" + $retrieve_token
$htmlContent = @"
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Custom Response Page</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>This is a custom response page</h1>
<p>Custom content for the response page goes here...</p>
</body>
</html>
"@
# Convert the HTML content to Base64
$htmlContentBase64 = [System.Convert]::ToBase64String([System.Text.Encoding]::UTF8.GetBytes($htmlContent))
# Define the XML API request body with the encoded HTML content
$xmlRequestBody = @"
<request>
<system>
<response-pages>
<entry name="Application-block-page">
<html-content>$htmlContentBase64</html-content>
</entry>
</response-pages>
</system>
</request>
"@
$response1 = Invoke-RestMethod -Uri $deviceUrl -Method Post -Body $xmlRequestBody -ContentType "application/xml"

Hi @Indranil-Chowdhury ,
If you are not able to discern the error in your code output, I can't help you. I did provide you with the XML URL to upload a page, which you requested.
You could try to use curl or Postman to verify the URL works outside of your script.
Thanks,
Tom
