Demystifying the iControl Rest API documentation

Hi!

 

Just started to dabble with the REST interface and so far it's been going great, but I've run into some problems with decrypting the API documentation.

 

Looking at the doc for client SSL profiles I can see many options and I assume that most of them is just a matter of adding a key/value. However, when looking at the cert, key and chain they have been deprecated in favor of cert-key-chain.

 

And information regarding that one is kept at the bottom of the page. The information says "array_structure". Not very helpful.

 

So, could anyone please help me by explaining how to interpret the page? My end-goal is to create a client SSL profile with a certificate, key and chain.

Ps. The property called authenticate does not have a default, but the description says "Specifies frequency of authentication. The default value is once.". Sounds like a default to me? Ds.
