Updating DataGroup using F5 SDK

Hello.

 

I'm trying to add a new datagroup record, to do so I use next code:

 

from f5.bigip import ManagementRoot

session = ManagementRoot("10.1.1.1","admin","mypass",token=True)
datagroup = session.tm.ltm.data_group.internals.internal.load(name='test', partition='Common')
datagroup.records = ["4.4.4.4/32", "4.4.4.5/32"]
datagroup.update()
datagroup = session.tm.ltm.data_group.internals.internal.load(name='test', partition='Common')
print(datagroup.records)

Having next result:

 

[{'name': '4.4.4.4/32', 'data': ''}, {'name': '4.4.4.5/32', 'data': ''}]

This is OK for updating address datagroups, but now I'm trying to modify strings datagroups with name and data fields. Do you know how should I write the variable in this case?

 

I can do it using REST without problem, but not using SDK. Any idea?

 

PUT https://localhost/mgmt/tm/ltm/data-group/internal/~Common~test
Header: "Content-type: application/json"
Payload: '{"records": [{"name": "mydomain1","data": "4.4.4.4/32"}, {"name": "mydomain2","data": "4.4.4.5/32"}]}'

Thanks in advance.

 

KR, Dario.

    I found a solution:

    from f5.bigip import ManagementRoot

session = ManagementRoot("10.1.1.1","admin","mypass",token=True)
datagroup = session.tm.ltm.data_group.internals.internal.load(name='test', partition='Common')
 CREATE NEW ITEMS DICT
item1 = dict([("name", "1.1.1.1/32"),("data", "domain1.com")])
item2 = dict([("name", "2.2.2.2/32"),("data", "domain2.com")])
 GENERATE A LIST FROM THOSE ITEMS
newitems = [item1, item2]
 APPEND ITEMS TO THE CURRENT DATAGROUP
datagroup.records = datagroup.records + newitems
datagroup.update()

    KR, Dario.
