API not working..

[gverbist]

Hi Guys,

I just started with ZoneMinder and trying to use API calls from my domotica system..

Trying to change the state of a monitor using this call

curl -XPOST http://server/zm/api/monitors/1.json -d "Monitor[Function]=Modect&Monitor[Enabled]:true"

What happens is that the monitor changes state BUT also goes to the disabled state although it says in the call that it should be enabled..

Anyone can shed some light?

The API has a typo in this example. Its been recently corrected - please refer to the "latest" version (not "stable")
http://zoneminder.readthedocs.io/en/latest/api.html

Code: Select all

curl -XPOST http://server/zm/api/monitors/1.json -d "Monitor[Function]=Modect&Monitor[Enabled]=1"
