API questions
Hi,
1. I saw that we can get a document with a list of all the options can be sent after '?' of the path of a directory like details:
https://isilon:8080/namespace/ifs/data/matt?detail=size
2. Is there any API command to change recursively ACL permission of a directory.
3. what is the right way to create directory with only posix permission?
No Events found!

Hello shlof27543,
Which Isilon system do you have? Which API are you going to be using as you didn’t state that in your post?

PowerScale OneFS 9.7.1.2
Do you mean to /platform/15?

Hello shlof27543,
There is not an api command to change recursively ACL permission of a directory that I am aware of. Here is a link to powerscale onefs api reference guide which explains what is needed to create a directory. https://www.dell.com/support/manuals/en-us/isilon-onefs/ifs_pub_onefs_api_reference/create-a-directory?guid=guid-e40d280a-b7f8-44aa-b34c-ee60b65e3ee3&lang=en-us

In this url it said:
x-isi-ifs-attr-<attr_name>
I cannot find where the list of the attr_name that can be use
I can create directory and give him ACL but I did not successed to change the owner and the group of the directory
Thanks a lot
