Hi all,
Need some help please, I’m still early days in my API learnings so I appreciate any help I can get!
Trying to update provisioning policies and I’m not so sure as to what the ‘path’ should be? I can’t see any obvious documentation and struggling to make sense of it.
For example, say I am trying to update the 'Dummy Test provisioning policy:
What should this path be?
This is the API I am trying to use:
& when I try accessing the transform guide I get a 404 error:

Hi Sean
Personally, I find it easier to delete the provisioning policy then re-create it.
But for your case, if you want to replace the Dummy Test, then it would be /fields/1
(displayName in your screenshot is /fields/0 )
The reason is you can see fields is an Array (line 6, it is inside [ ] ) and array counting starts at zero.

Thanks Jason, yeah likewise - generally adding seems to be cleaner I 100% agree.
But I’d still like to learn how to replace as it’s a gap in my understanding of this API.
So from what you’re saying, it sounds like the number is the index of provisioning policy?
/fields/0 = Policy 1 (displayName)
/fields/1 = Policy 2 (Dummy Test)
And so on?
Just checking that the bracket starting on line 12 wouldn’t be considered a field for the path ?
The path for line 12 would be
/fields/0/transform/attributes/values
I would test just to make sure it works as expected

Nice, so the path for line 31 would be:
/fields/1/transform/attributes/value
Yeah this is all in UAT environment - it’s breakable xD!
line 31 would be /fields/1/name
/fields/1/transform/attributes/value is line 35
