How to get Firewall Rule ID from XML export file

August Admin Vosterman 26 days ago

When creating an XML export of FirewallRule via Backup & Firmware -> Import export what is missing in in the XML is the Rule ID.

How to get this ID? Or can this be retrieved via API request?

greetings,

August

API and XML are not aware of the Firewall IDs, as this is Firewall specific. This could change in the future, but right now, you wont get a mapping between IDs.

Firewall IDs are specific to a particular Firewall.

Meaning: If you import a XML to another firewall, the IDs are different.

Hi, I don't need to import it in another firewall. It's just for creating an Excel report.
