error Displays the message for any REST error encountered.

Conditions

Variable Description
Success Activity successfully created the network.
Failure Activity failed to create the network.

Get Network Details activity

The Get Network Details activity retrieves the information about a specific network on an Infoblox server.

The network activities use the REST web service activity template to manage network addresses using an Infoblox DDI Grid Server. These activities are configured to use a MID Server with REST capabilities.

To access this activity in the Workflow Editor, select the Custom tab, and then navigate to Custom Activities > Infoblox DDI > Network.

error

Displays the message for any REST error encountered.

NetworkOptions

The NetworkOptions array contains these attributes:- reference: Reference value for the network requested. This value is in the form of network/ZG5zLm5ldHdvcmskMTAuMS4wLjAvMTYvMA:10.1.0.0%2F1

  • options: The options array contains these attributes:
    • name: Name of the network option returned, such as domain-name-server.

Success Activity successfully retrieved network details from the Infoblox server.
Failure Activity failed to retrieve network details from the Infoblox server.

Delete Network activity

The Delete Network activity deletes a network from an Infoblox server.

The network activities use the REST web service activity template to manage network addresses using an Infoblox DDI Grid Server. These activities are configured to use a MID Server with REST capabilities.

To access this activity in the Workflow Editor, select the Custom tab, and then navigate to Custom Activities > Infoblox DDI > Network.
