how to get vms in folder

Open navi86 opened this issue 6 years ago • 2 comments

I am trying to get VMs from specific folder and subfolders. I've opened issue 85, but the solution doesn't provide with vms in subfolder. Is it not possible to get vms in subfolders ?

The API currently doesn't include vms in subfolders. I just checked the API doc and it doesn't mention this behavior. I will file a bug to fix the doc. I will also file a feature request to add the recursive capability to the API.

It seems like you can already do it now with client.vcenter.VM.list(VM.FilterSpec(folders=folder_id)) https://developer.vmware.com/apis/vsphere-automation/latest/vcenter/data-structures/VM/FilterSpec/
