ISE Network Device Group API Wrong

[maconrad]

Prerequisites

• [x ] Have you tested the operation in the API directly?
• [x ] Do you have the latest SDK version?

Describe the bug NetworkDeviceGroup.create uses wrong params in ISE 3.2. It uses othername but the API expects ndgtype (see screenshot below). This was probably changed/updated at some point.

https://ciscoisesdk.readthedocs.io/en/latest/_modules/ciscoisesdk/api/v3_1_0/network_device_group.html#NetworkDeviceGroup.create

Expected behavior Update SDK to use correct name as seen in screeshot below. New: ndgtype, old: othername

Screenshots

Environment (please complete the following information):

• ISE version and patch: 3.2
• Python version: 3.10.7
• SDK version: 2.0.8
• OS version: OSX

Hello @maconrad, currently version 3.2 is not supported, when we receive the corresponding documentation we will release a new version that supports it and you will be notified.

I'm also encountering this issue on 3.1 with Patch 4. I was on 3.1 (w/ no Patches) and I was able to create a Network Device Group with othername, but I was not able to delete the Group. I kept getting a CRUD operation exception. I applied Patch 4, which resolved the issue of not being able to delete Network Device Groups, but now I'm unable to create them using param othername and using ndgtype as a param throws up an error.

I did discover a work around however to create by wrapping everything under the payload param.

So rather than this api.network_device_group.create(name='Location#All Locations#TestSite')

I did this instead api.network_device_group.create(payload= {'NetworkDeviceGroup': {'name': 'Location#All Locations#TestSite', 'ndgtype': 'Location'}})

This is a backwards incompatible change that will be rolled back. othername will be reinstated, most likely in Patch 6.
