Hi all,

I am happy to update about important addition to R80.40 Management API - Batch Objects commands.

Batch API Significantly increase API performance in multiple object operations (add/set/delete).

Object creation time reduced by up to 92% when compared to adding one-by-one*
Object deletion time reduced by up to 87% when compared to deleting one-by-one*

*In the tested scenario of adding and deleting 256 hosts objects.

Commands:

add-objects-batch
set-objects-batch
delete-objects-batch

Batch supported types: access-role, address-range, application-site-category, application-site-group, dns-domain, dynamic-object, group, group-with-exclusion, host, lsv-profile, multicast-address-range, network, package, security-zone, service-dce-rpc, service-group, service-icmp, service-other, service-sctp, service-tcp, service-udp, tag, time, time-group, vpn-community-meshed, vpn-community-star, wildcard.

Example:

add objects-batch

Add two hosts and two address ranges

Command

POST {{server}}/add-objects-batch Content-Type: application/json X-chkp-sid: {{session}} { "objects" : [ { "type" : "host", "list" : [ { "name" : "New Host 1", "ip-address" : "192.0.2.1" }, { "name" : "New Host 2", "ip-address" : "192.0.2.2" } ] }, { "type" : "address-range", "list" : [ { "name" : "New Address Range 1", "ip-address-first" : "192.0.2.1", "ip-address-last" : "192.0.2.10" }, { "name" : "New Address Range 2", "ip-address-first" : "192.0.2.12", "ip-address-last" : "192.0.2.20" } ] } ] }

Output

{ "tasks" : [ { "task-name" : "add-objects-batch", "task-id" : "abcdef01-2345-6789-b3e1-ec3bf46e688a", "status" : "succeeded", "progress-percentage" : 100, "progress-description" : "Operation Complete", "suppressed" : false, "task-details" : [ { "status" : "Batch operation completed successfully" } ] } ] }

Regards,

Management API team.

Hi @Yael_G,

Nice!

Will this also be integrated in R80.20/R80.30 with a JHFA?

A large part of my day to day watching putty sessions iterate through API calls has just come to an end! What am I going to do now?
