I'm trying to create a VM on Prims Central using the V3 APIs, but I get an error. The same call directly to PE works correctly.My setup:PC 5.5NOS 5.5SSP configured (just default project)
The body:
{'name': 'test', 'resources': {'disk_list': [{'data_source_reference': {'kind': 'image', 'uuid': 'b5cf0091-67fe-462c-8cad-0dfe59d2fff5'}, 'device_properties': {'device_type': 'DISK', 'disk_address': {'adapter_type': 'SCSI', 'device_index': 0}}}], 'memory_size_mib': 1024, 'num_sockets': 1, 'num_vcpus_per_socket': 1, 'power_state': 'OFF'}}
The error is: "Error: {'reason': 'INTERNAL_ERROR', 'message': 'Failed to send RPC request'}"
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks

Hi @tudamp ! Going through and replying to some older posts - hope that's OK. :)
I've had a look at your POST body and, while the JSON itself is valid, it doesn't quite conform to the requirements for creating a VM with our v3 APIs. I've modified it slightly and tested against my demo cluster here - I'm running AOS 5.6 (released today) but the request should work the same way on 5.5.
The updated body looks like this - I've got an image UUID for my cluster in there so you'll need to change that back. The main differences are the addition of the "spec" and "metadata" sections.
You'll find these things documented here: https://.
Cheers,
