I got away with the issue by doing below 1) create VIP VIPName with empty profiles 2) add profile to /ltm/virtual/${VIPName}/profiles. 3) Modify the VIP via PUT to modify the irules for the VIP. But, the below JSON to modify the VIP to add rules does not work "rules":["/Common/_sys_https_redirect"] It complain that {"code":400,"message":"Found invalid JSON body in the request.","errorStack":[]} if i used "rules":['/Common/_sys_https_redirect'] It complain that {"code":400,"message":"\"[ '/Common/_sys_https_redirect' ]\" unexpected argument","errorStack":[]} Please help.
