Muting alerts via the Orion API

I am currently working on a python script to mute alerts for a specific node using the orionsdk.

swis.invoke('Orion.AlertSuppression', 'SuppressAlerts', uri, start, end)

After running my script I can see the following in the Solarwinds audit log, but the node continues to alert, has anyone experienced this issue?

User suppress changed the schedule for muting alerts on opskzlp333 to 7/28/2017 1:15:00 PM - 7/28/2017 2:12:00 PM.

Found the issue.

Even though UTC time was specified in the Start and End strings, and the audit log was showing the correct times in my time zone. The Start And End Strings needed to end in Z.

["URI'], '2017-08-03 14:30:37Z', '2017-08-03 15:28:37Z')

Where are you finding documentation that describes all of the functions you can use with the API?
