Issue/Introduction

• After upgrading to VMware Cloud Director 10.6.x, API endpoints /cloudapi/1.0.0/vdcComputePolicies fail during regression testing/executing. 
  
  Error: 405 METHOD_NOT_ALLOWED


• Encountering the NOT_ACCEPTABLE error and invalid header exception when executing the endpoint with API version 39.1

Environment

VMware Cloud Director 10.6.x

API version 39.0 and higher

Cause

The cloudapi/1.0.0/vdcComputePolicies endpoint was deprecated in API version 35.0. Although it remained functional in API versions 38.1 and lower, it is explicitly unsupported in API version 39.0 and higher, which is included with VMware Cloud Director 10.6.x

Resolution

To resolve this issue, update the automation scripts and API integrations to utilize the supported endpoint:

/cloudapi/2.0.0/vdcComputePolicies
