    I want to Create Agent object using REST API. How to define “id” (Xid) , “href” links in the POST request?

    Are these 2 parameters mandatory as part of Agent Creation request (or) is it something that is auto generated by policy server during the creation ?  

     

    {
    "Name": "test-agent",
    "Desc": "test-agent",
    "AgentTypeLink": {
    "id": "",
    "path": "/SmAgentTypes/Web+Agent",
    "href": "",
    "desc": "SiteMinder Web Agent"
    }
    }

    Makesh

     

    When creating the Agent object only TWO fields are mandatory (Name and AgentTypeLink).

     

    The remaining attributes get created once the WebAgent object is created on the Policy Store.

     

     

    {
      "Name": "testingrestagent",
      "Desc": "testingrestagent",
      "AgentTypeLink": "CA.SM::AgentType@10-8d78bb96-ae15-11d1-9cdd-006008aac24b"
    }
