NimbostratusAPI REST error 400
NimbostratusHello JRahm
Thank you for your answer but it does not work, I have another error.
Test done via curl and via python.
curl -sk -H "X-F5-Auth-Token: XXXXXX" -X POST https://x.x.x.x/mgmt/tm/sys/file/ssl-cert -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d '{"name":"testcsr","partition": "Common","sourcePath":"/var/www/html/certs/certificats/files/test_certificate.pem"}'{
"code": 400,
"message": "Failed! exit_code (3).\n",
"errorStack": [],
"apiError": 26214401
}from f5.bigip import ManagementRoot

mgmt = ManagementRoot("x.x.x.x", "admin", "admin")
cert = mgmt.tm.sys.file.ssl_certs.ssl_cert.create(name='test_cert', sourcePath='/var/www/html/certs/certificats/files/test_certificate.pem')Traceback (most recent call last):

Do you have a working example?
Test carried out on an F5 in version 13.1.5 and in version 14.1.4.6 with the same result.
NimbostratusI saw on a devcentral post that it was necessary to add file: to the pathfile.
curl -sku admin:admin -X POST https://x.x.x.x/mgmt/tm/sys/file/ssl-cert -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d '{"name":"testcsr.crt","partition": "Common","sourcePath":"file:/var/www/html/certs/certificats/files/test_certificate.pem"}'{

it would be a problem of rights or other API but I don't know where?

Admin
Looks like you're missing a letter in certificates in your source file path on quick glance.
on my phone with a break in daddy duty...can dig in a little later this morning once little man gets to preschool.

For me it's ok the names of the sources are ok

ok...this is my working python hook script I use for Let's Encrypt, which can be modified.
But to step back a little bit, are you using an admin account to make the request? It is required unless you create custom roles for the REST API.
