Adding multiple VM NICs or VM tags in a single request
Hi Nir and RedHat Team, Would like to confirm if it is possible to create multiple VM tags or multiple VM NICs in a single POST request. Currently, I could see that a single request creates a single VM NIC or VM tag for a given virtual machine. We are using the following APIs but looks like it doesn’t allows us to add multiple VM NICs or VM tags in a single request. If it is possible, please let us know how the request body should look like in that case. POST /vms/{vm:id}/tags Request body: <tags> <name>tag1</name> </tags> POST /vms/{vm:id}/nics Request body: <nic> <name>network1</name> </nic> Thanks & Regards, Mahesh Falmari

Hi, Indeed, it is not possible to create multiple entities in a single POST request. It adds some complexity - for example what happens if the creation of one of the entities has succeeded and another has not? There are all sorts of corner cases which complicates matters and this goes against the simplicity and straightforwardness that a RESTful API should have. In summary, the way to created multiple resources is to issue a separate POST request for each one. Hope this helps, Ori On Thu, Dec 20, 2018 at 3:42 PM Greg Sheremeta <gshereme@redhat.com> wrote:
