Trouble with REST API /pool/dataset/id/ PUT request

[user0241233]

Hello,

I'm trying to use REST API endpoint /pool/dataset/id/ PUT to modify a dataset that I created. Specifically, I'd like to change the name of the dataset. This is what I have been able to achieve so far,

Code:

curl --location --request PUT 'http://abc.com/api/v2.0/pool/dataset/id/StoragePool%2Fdata-test%2Fgroups%2Fhardware' \
--header 'Authorization: Basic ######' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--data-raw '{
    "name": "StoragePool/data-test/groups/software"
}'

But I'm getting a weird output.

Code:

{
    "pool_dataset_update.name": [
        {
            "message": "Field was not expected",
            "errno": 22
        }
    ]
}

When I try changing something else, like the "quota",

Code:

curl --location --request PUT 'http:////abc.com/api/v2.0/pool/dataset/id/StoragePool%2Fdata-test%2Fgroups%2Fhardware' \
--header 'Authorization: Basic ######' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--data-raw '{
    "quota": 2000000000
}'

I get the following error:

Code:

500 Internal Server Error

Server got itself in trouble

TrueNAS Scale Version: TrueNAS-SCALE-22.02.4
Let me know if you need further info and please help with this,

Thanks,

have you tried via webUI or CLI?
They would both use the same API.

@morganL I can use the webUI for most cases (webUI doesn't allow changing the dataset name, which I need to do) but CLI works just fine. But I need to automate creation of several datasets and need the API for that. Do you think it could be a bug? Should I create a bug report?

If TrueNAS CLI (not linux CLI) works....its probably not a bug, but a configuration issue.

If you can confirm that other apis work and a specific one doesn't, its probably a bug and should be reported.

Lets see if anyone else can spot an issue.

@morganL I'm afraid I'm not sure which is which. I'm only aware of one CLI which is accessed through webUI through System Settings > Shell and I've always assumed it to be TrueNAS CLI.

Yes, I've used other endpoints and I've been able to use them. The same endpoint that I have mentioned to be causing issue (PUT /pool/dataset/id/{id}) works just fine with GET method but doesn't work with PUT.
