BIG-IP Next Central Manager API with Python
I've been working with the BIG-IP Next API with curl on the command line and with the Postman GUI app as well. Both useful as I am getting comfortable with the API, but not my favorite tools in the toolbox, which is python. In this episode of DevCentral Connects, I'll share the early stages of a tool I'm building for working with BIG-IP Next in python and walk through some tasks with the BIG-IP Next API.BIG-IP Next Central Manager API with Postman
I've been working with the BIG-IP Next API from the API reference and with curl on the command line, and I gotta tell you, as much as I don't love Postman, it's super handy when learning an API. In this episode of DevCentral Connects, I'll download the collection from the Next documentation, get the environment variables set up, and walk through some of the tasks available in the collection to start working with the BIG-IP Next API.F5 Academy Virtual Roadshow: BIG-IP Next
