firewall_update_alias.sync

[philippenc]

I am experiencing a problem with updating an alias by its ID. The authentication part is working correctly: I can list aliases and retrieve their IDs. However, when I try to update an alias using its ID, I get an error code stating that the alias name does not exist.

Here is the code example:

codealias_id = "25"  # Remplacez par l'identifiant réel

nouvel_alias = FWAlias(name="TEST_API",)

update_req = FWUpdateAliasreq(alias=nouvel_alias, id=alias_id)

result = firewall_update_alias.sync(client=devApi, id=alias_id, body=update_req)

print(result)_text

the error message:
Error(errcode=400, errlevel=<pfapi.types.Unset object at 0x7d55248423c0>, errmsg='name missing', alerts=<pfapi.types.Unset object at 0x7d55248423c0>, additional_properties={})

and the logs on the pfSense:
