As a test I have written PowerShell to test the EXPORT and IMPORT of the vPAN (config.xml)   Export works fine but Import does not (It does work with cURL but I need this to work with PowerShell)   Here is my code ....   $domain = "https://fw.contoso.com/api/" $creds = "?type=keygen&user=USER01&password=SomePassword" $post = $domain + $creds [xml]$XmlDoc= (Invoke-WebRequest -Method POST -Uri $post).content $key = $XmlDoc.response.result.key $req = "?type=export&category=configuration&key=" $config = $domain + $req + $key $fileExport = "config.xml" $fileImport = "config.xml" $path4files = "C:\scripts\" $xmlExport = $path4files + $fileExport $xmlImport = $path4files + $fileImport (Invoke-WebRequest -outfile $xmlExport -Method POST -Uri $config).content $import = "?type=op&cmd=<upload><config><name>" $import2 = "</name></config></upload>&key=" $put = $domain + $import + $fileImport + $import2 + $key (Invoke-RestMethod -Method GET -Uri $put -Verbose -ContentType 'application/xml') Any ideas how to use PowerShell to import the config to the vPAN?   Thank you. ...

Palo Alto newbie so please excuse the nature of the question:   I would like to know if there is a way use PowerShell, Panorama and/or the CLI to distribute and configure the XML file that can be pulled down via. . .     (Invoke-WebRequest -outfile c:\scripts\the.xml -Method POST -Uri 'https://paloalto.contoso.com/api/?type=export&category=configuration&key=xyzxyzxyzxyz....abcabc).content Effectively, I would like to be able to stand up another firewall in the event the firewall or site were to go down.  Need be, I would like to be able to edit the XML file (perhaps programmatically or perhaps not) to change a few settings prior to pushing it to the new firewall.  We would be deploying the vPANs in Azure with ARM templates and PowerShell.   Any ideas how to get this done?  I read about bootstrapping but that seem extremely convoluted.   Does Panorama exist in Azure too?  thank you. ...
