Create Host Record with already created IP

[mr-oz-09]

I cant seem to create a host record with an already given IP address. I try passing it objects.HostRecord.create(conn, view='name',zone='zonename', name='isntancename', ipv4addr='ip'). I get an error stating "ip address is missing for Host Record" . I print out the ip before running the command so I know its there. If i try and pass it with ipv4addrs=[ip]. I get "IP must be string or NIOS IP object". I dont see any clear documentation on how to do this. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hello @sarya-infoblox ,
I am trying to create a HostRecord with passing in a single IP and name. I am using the latest release of the plugin as well. The code I am trying to use is as follows
ops = {'host': infourl, 'username': uname, 'password': password,, 'wapi_version': '2.11.2', 'max_retries': 5} connection = connector.Connector(opts) objects.HostRecord.create(connection, zone=zonename, name=instancename, ip=my_ip, check_if_exists=True, update_if_exists=false)

Closing this. It seems you need the IP.create method before sending in an IP address to the Host.Create
