how to use multiple key-value pairs in body of na_ontap_rest_api?

SCL — Wed, 04 Jun 2025 09:43:19 GMT

I have this functioning example of na_ontap_rest_api:

- name: run vserver cifs security modify aes-enabled-for-netlogon-channel true netapp.ontap.na_ontap_rest_cli: hostname: "{{ inventory_hostname }}" username: "{{ lookup('env','NETAPP_USER') }}" password: "{{ lookup('env','NETAPP_PASS') }}" validate_certs: false command: 'vserver/cifs/security' verb: PATCH params: { 'vserver': "{{ item.name }}" } body: { 'aes-enabled-for-netlogon-channel': 'true' } with_items: - "{{ svm }}" register: command_result tags: [standard,command,cifs-security,new]

I want to do something similar with this CLI:

ldap client modify -vserver <vserver> -client-config exoduspoint_ad -ldaps-enabled true -port 636

What is the format for using multiple key-value pairs in the body? -- TIA!

It's a standard JSON body so I would imagine this would work...

body: { "client-config": "exoduspoint_ad", "ldaps-enabled": true, "port": "636" }

Thanks @JohnChampion -- a comma-separated list worked but we cleaned it up a bit by doing this (different bloc snippet)

params: { 'vserver': "{{ item.name }}" } body: advertised-enc-types: ['aes-128','aes-256'] aes-enabled-for-netlogon-channel: true is-signing-required: true lm-compatibility-level: ntlmv2-krb session-security-for-ad-ldap: seal
