"API not found"

sigma77in — Tue, 10 Mar 2020 15:35:07 GMT

Hello Experts,

I am new to NetApp api. My cluster is on NetApp Release 9.5P6. Running a curl api query against this cluster gives me "API not found" error. Why is that so since I am using admin user to authenticate ? Does API needs to be enabled separately.

curl -X GET -u admin:password -k 'https://xx.xx.xx.xx/api/storage/volumes'

{
"error": {
"message": "API not found",
"code": "3"
}

Per this link ONTAP didn't start supporting the REST API until version 9.6 (https://devnet.netapp.com/restapi).

Your post referenced ONTAP 9.5P6, which means you'll need to continue using traditional ZAPI calls, and not REST API calls.
