Common Operations¶

All configuration objects support the following common operations:

List¶

Retrieves a list of objects:

# List all objects
all_items = client.address.list()

# List with filtering
filtered_items = client.address.list(filter="name eq 'web-server'")

# List with limit
limited_items = client.address.list(limit=10)

Fetch¶

Retrieves a specific object by ID:

# Fetch by ID
object = client.address.fetch(id="12345")

Create¶

Creates a new object:

# Create a new object
new_object = client.address.create({
    "name": "web-server",
    "folder": "Texas",
    # Other required fields
})

Update¶

# Update an object
client.address.update(id="12345", data={
    "description": "Updated description"
})
