Is this possible? I know it's trivial to hit REST API endpoints with cURL, but how about ZAPIs?
There old tools like ZExplorer [1] for navigating ZAPIs, but I'd love to know if it can be done natively with a CLI tool like curl or wget.

it's XML-RPC, so it should be possible with curl/wget, just not very practical due to the large XML files and the complex queries

hi @marsh sparrow here's an example sending the system-get-version
replace $user, $pass, $ip
curl -k -u $user:$pass -d '<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <netapp xmlns="http://www.netapp.com/filer/admin" version="1.30"> <system-get-version/> </netapp>' -H "Content-Type: text/xml" -X POST https://$ip/servlets/netapp.servlets.admin.XMLrequest_filer
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE netapp SYSTEM "file:/etc/netapp_gx.dtd">

thank you both! will give it a try
$ curl -k -u $CREDS -d '<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <netapp xmlns="http://www.netapp.com/filer/admin" version="1.30"> <system-get-version/> </netapp>' -H "Content-Type: text/xml" -X POST https://$IP/servlets/netapp.servlets.admin.XMLrequest_filer

that was easy.. though mine is not as nicely formatted as Chris'!

the trick is to specify "xml" after the three backticks 😉
marsh sparrow
ooh hold on then

<foo><bar>...</bar></foo>
vs
<foo><bar>...</bar></foo>
hmm the indenting is still borked
minor yarrow
hm, indeedn, but I think he might have faked that 😉

gasp
I just tried aggr-get-iter and it's an unreadable mess. but it works!
thank you both 🙂
minor yarrow
you can add | xmlstarlet fo to the curl command if you have xmlstarlet installed to pretty-print it. I assume there are also some other nice XML pretty-printers out there
mortal helm
i pass it through xml fo to format
minor yarrow
i pass it through `xml fo` to format
probably the same tool, judging by the commandline parameter 😉
mortal helm
yep
minor yarrow
it's pretty neat since it can also do ad-hoc XML selections via XPath (without having to write a separate xslt file)
