dnacentersdk

Work with the DNA Center APIs in native Python!

dnacentersdk is a community developed Python library for working with the DNA Center APIs. Our goal is to make working with DNA Center in Python a native and natural experience!

from dnacentersdk import api

# Create a DNACenterAPI connection object;
# it uses DNA Center sandbox URL, username and password, with DNA Center API version 2.2.3.3.
# and requests to verify the server's TLS certificate with verify=True.
dnac = api.DNACenterAPI(username="devnetuser",
                        password="Cisco123!",
                        base_url="https://sandboxdnac.cisco.com:443",
                        version='2.2.3.3',
                        verify=True)

# Find all devices that have 'Switches and Hubs' in their family
devices = dnac.devices.get_device_list(family='Switches and Hubs')

# Print all of demo devices
for device in devices.response:
    print('{:20s}{}'.format(device.hostname, device.upTime))

# Find all tags
all_tags = dnac.tag.get_tag(sort_by='name', order='des')
demo_tags = [tag for tag in all_tags.response if 'Demo' in tag.name ]

#  Delete all of the demo tags
for tag in demo_tags:
    dnac.tag.delete_tag(tag.id)

# Create a new demo tag
demo_tag = dnac.tag.create_tag(name='dna Demo')
task_demo_tag = dnac.task.get_task_by_id(task_id=demo_tag.response.taskId)

# Define the get_global_credentials and create_netconf_credentials functions
# under the custom_caller wrapper.

#     dnac.custom_caller.create_netconf_credentials('65533')
