[ovirt-users] JSON

[X.Smalbil]

This is my request:

POST /api/vms HTTP/1.1
Authorization: Basic YWRatW5AaA50YSJuYWw1aABja2VyMTM=
Content-Type: application/json
Accept: application/json
Host: 192.168.2.21
Connection: close
User-Agent: Paw/2.2.1 (Macintosh; OS X/10.10.3) GCDHTTPRequest
Content-Length: 83

{"vm":{"name":"superduper","cluster.name":"local_cluster","template.name":"Blank"}}



This is the message I get back:

Hi everybody,

Where can I find some examples of using the REST api? 
I find it hard to find out what parameters I can send to in order to get rid of the “Request is syntactically incorrect” or “Bad request” errors
so I can have a good play around.


Best regards,
