How do you add an attribute to a port on a resource created from 2nd Gen shells?
Created a resource such as a Cisco Router using 8.0 2nd Gen Shell. I want to add an attribute to each Port - how do I do that - have not spotted an API that will let me associate an attribute to the resource port model that I can use
Starting with CloudShell 8.3, this can also be done in the UI. See this online help article.
Hi Jim,
You should use the SetCustomShellAttribute new api to do that. There is no UI for that for now.
SetCustomShellAttribute(modelName='', attributeName='', defaultValue='', restrictedValues=[])
RemoveCustomShellAttribute(modelName='', attributeName='')

@Yaniv.K, there's no place in the api to specify the resource? Is this to add an attribute that Ican then set the value with just SetAttributeValue?
Yes, you use it to add the custom attribute to the model (port model in this case), and then use then use the SetAttributeValue to set the values on the specific resource ports.
