GAIA API

C_M — Tue, 26 May 2020 14:11:42 GMT

Is there a list of future enhancements or you know things that are being worked on for the GAIA API?

For example, currently we can view routes via the GAIA API, but can't add routes via the GAIA API.

Are there any plans to add the ability to add routes via the GAIA API?

What's coming in future GAIA API releases?

The full set of API calls is always part of official reference:

Indeed, the route config is not part of the current set. You could probably use "run-script" option to add static routes.

We usually do not disclose the plans for the future releases. However, it will help to hear your suggestions.

To me it sounds like the idea of the GAIA API was to replicate clish/CLI commands. So just about any clish/CLI command would be nice. Such as add routes.

The ability to change expert password would also be nice. The equivalent of set expert-password in clish.

You can always do it by using script option, with "clish -c set-expert-password-hash"

Not to replicate commands, but provide APIs for OS level settings.
