Update a single configuration element instance

put

/rest/{version}/configuration/configElements

Updates the specified configuration element instance in the system configuration. The client making the PUT request must already possess the configuration lock or the request fails. If the specified element instance is a singleton - meaning only one instance can exist in the system configuration - it must first have been created using POST. When editing any non-singleton element, the PUT request body must include the key attribute(s) that uniquely identify the instance being edited, as well as any attributes or sub-elements that are being changed. However, the client is free to send all of the element's attriutes or sub-elements in the PUT request. Any attribute or sub-element in the request that is identical to the system configuration will be left unmodified in the system configuration. If one or more attributes or sub-elements in the request is syntactically invalid, the PUT request fails and the system configuration is left unmodified.

Request

Path Parameters
Header Parameters
  • The value in the Authorization header must be the string "Bearer <access token>", where <access token> is a valid, unexpired token received in response to a prior /auth/token request.
Supported Media Types
Request Body ()
When updating a singleton element type, the request body must contain the element type and only those attributes/sub-elements that are being modified. When updating a non-singleton element type, the request body must contain the element type, the key attribute(s) to uniquely identify the instance being updated, and the attribute(s) or sub-element(s) that are being modified. In either case, however (singleon or multi-instance), the client may provide the entire set of element attributes and sub-elements, and the system will only update those that are different from the current system configuration (assuming all supplied values are valid).

Examples

The following example shows how to update a single configuration element instance by submitting a PUT request on the REST resource using cURL. For more information about cURL, see Use cURL

curl -X PUT \
    --header 'Accept: application/xml' \
    --header 'Authorization: Bearer <token>' \
    -d@request.xml \
    'https://10.0.0.2/rest/v1.0/configuration/configElements?elementType=ntp-config'

The following shows an example of the contents of the request.xml file sent as the request body. 

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<configElement>
  <elementType>ntp-config</elementType>
  <attribute>
    <name>server</name>
    <value>10.0.0.20</value>
  </attribute>
</configElement>
