Edit SSL Profile fails with "apiError":26214401

I am trying to edit a server-ssl profile via REST API to add options. The request fails with HTTP 400 :: {"code":400,"message":"\"{ dont-insert-empty-fragments no-tlsv1.3 }\" unexpected argument",...

Hit the same issue, it looks like the value returned from the API is different from what it will accept, if you replace the value with a list it should work:

if profile["tmOptions"] == "{ dont-insert-empty-fragments no-tlsv1.3 }":

    profile["tmOptions"] = ["dont-insert-empty-fragments",  "no-tlsv1.3"]

those values seem to be the default though, so they will be populated by the F5 if you strip them out. eg:

profile.pop("tmOptions")

the top option might break if the bug is fixed, but is the likely option if you are trying to use something other than the defaults.

    change string format

    "{ dont-insert-empty-fragments no-tlsv1.3 }"

    to list, work correct, thank you
