Add Credentials - REST API PowerFlex Manager

I am trying to add credentials to PowerFlex Manager using the rest api located here: https://developer.dell.com/apis/4008/versions/4.6.1/PowerFlexManager_REST_API.json/paths/~1Credential/post

It seems that there is no way to add a SNMP Version or Community String.  When trying to add a switch which seems to require a SNMP community string, I get the following error


Is there a way to add the SNMP version and community string to the XML payload?

Hello grindj,

Here is a link to a kb which explains how to Configure SNMP on a Cisco or Dell Switch for Powerflex.

https://www.dell.com/support/kbdoc/en-us/000324462/powerflex-how-to-configure-snmp-on-a-switch

Which switch and model are you using?

@DELL-Sam L​ Thanks for your reply.  My question was specific to using the REST api to add the credential in PowerFlex Manager.

Hello grindj,

You can configure SNMP traps on your Powerflex system. I am not seeing a way to add SNMP version or add a community string via REST API.
