Orion SDK and Python Script to Set Connect Profile in NCM

bdp

Hello,

I have written a successful python script that adds a node, monitors interfaces, enables the node to be enabled in NCM all in one script. The script executes perfectly.

In my environment, I have multiple connection profiles associated with my NCM for different credentials. I would like to create a section of code that adds the correct profile for logging in.

I was playing with some different code examples, and I could not get it to work.

    # Set Connection profile
    print('Setting NCM Credentials...')
    get_node_ncm = swis.invoke('Cirrus.Nodes', 'GetNode', str(nodeid))
    result = get_node_ncm['ConnectionProfile'] = 1
    #set_ncm_creds = swis.invoke('Cirrus.Nodes', str(nodeid))
    #result = set_ncm_creds['GetAllConnectionProfiles']
    print(result)

 Some things are commented out as I was playing with it and testing.

Has anyone successfully done this? Anyone have any code samples that can be shared? Or links to specific documentation on this? I can't find any documentation that helps me integrate this.

Thanks

You're trying to use invoke the second time to set the credentials and what you want instead is to use update to set the 'ConnectionProfile' value. Here's a Go program in the samples that @anazurc contributed a while ago that shows the process on line 44.
