VMware NSX GET API api/v1/ip-sets default page size 50

Products

• VMware NSX Networking

Issue/Introduction

Symptoms:

• Running the following Management Plane (MP) API call will show only 50 results, due to the default page size being 50:

GET api/v1/ip-sets

• Whereas the Policy GET API call returns 1000, due to the default page size being 1000:

GET /policy/api/v1/infra/domains/<domain-id>/groups

• The VMware NSX API guide shows the management GET API for api/v1/ip-sets default page size as 1000.

Note: The Policy API does not have an equivalent API to api/v1/ip-sets, as ip-sets are represented as groups in policy.

Environment

VMware NSX-T Data Center
VMware NSX-T Data Center 3.x

Cause

The API guide has an incorrect value for the default page size for the GET API api/v1/ip-sets.
It shows the default page size as 1000, whereas it should be 50.

Resolution

The API guide will be corrected in a future release to reflect the correct page size of 50.

Workaround:
As the MP API's have been deprecated starting with VMware NSX 3.2.x , it is advised to use the Policy API's, which have the correct values.
