Sophos XGS : Bulk Rename of IP Hosts and IP Host Groups via API

Gaëtan Voltolini

Hello,

I need assistance with bulk renaming various objects such as IP Hosts and IP Host Groups on Sophos Firewall through the API. Could someone guide me on the best practices or provide a step-by-step procedure for this task?

Thank you in advance for your help!

Best regards,
Gaëtan Voltolini

    Hi Vivek,

    Thanks for your answer.

    I have read the documentation and made many tests, But  i don't understand how to change the name of the object? 

    As I have understood, it's used as an "ID" for the change.

    Thanks

    Thanks
