Creating a wideip using Python f5-sdk

[A_J_]

Hello!

 I am trying to create a wideip using the 'payload' method in python, drawing all the attributes from a JSON file but I keep getting the following error:

{ "code":400,"message":"one or more configuration identifiers must be provided","errorStack":[],"apiError":26214401}

I'm not sure what I'm missing. If anyone has a sample code or could take a look, it would be greatly appreciated!

JSON:

"testwideip.com": {

        "wideipkind": "tm:gtm:wideip:a:astate",

        "lbmode": "",

        "ttl": 3600,

        "pools": [

            {

                "p1": {

                    "kind": "tm:gtm:pool:a:astate",

                    "name": "p1,

                    "partition": "Common",

                    "order": 0

                }

            }

        ]

    }

Python:

    with open(filename, 'r') as fh:

        content = json.load(fh)

    wideip = "testwideip.com"

    name = wideip

    wideipkind = content[wideip]["wideipkind"]

    lbmode = content[wideip]["lbmode"]

    ttl = content[wideip]["ttl"]

    pools = content[wideip]["pools"]

    payload = {}

    payload['name'] = name

    payload['kind'] = wideipkind

    if lbmode:

        payload['poolLbMode'] = lbmode

    payload['pools'] = pools

    payload['ttlPersistence'] = ttl

    mgmt.tm.gtm.wideips.a_s.a.create(**payload)

the f5 python SDK is no longer under active development. I would recommend using the native iControl REST API. i have an example in the blog post https://f5automation.xyz/articles/How-to-create-wideip-F5-GTM-DNS-using-Python
