db_objects : The DB Objects object.

The DB Objects object is used to search for changes in objects of the Infoblox Grid.

Note

You must specify the parameter start_sequence_id for incremental sync searches. Absence of start_sequence_id triggers reading records with revision_id greater than zero. All object fields are returned when you set all_object_types_supported_in_version search field, but do not specify the _return_fields option.

Object Reference

References to db_objects are object references.

The name part of the DB Objects object reference has the following components:

• The sequence id.

Example:

db_objects/Li51c2VyX3Byb2ZpbGUkMjI:322:32

Restrictions

The object does not support the following operations:

• Create (insert)

• Delete

• Modify (update)

• Read by object reference

• Global search (searches via the search object)

• Scheduling

• CSV export

The object cannot be managed on Cloud Platform members.

Fields

These fields are actual members of the object; thus, they can be requested by using _return_fields, if the fields are readable.

The basic version of the object contains the field(s): last_sequence_id, object, object_type, unique_id.

last_sequence_id

last_sequence_id

The last returned sequence ID.

Type

String.

Search

The field is not available for search.

Notes

The last_sequence_id is part of the base object.

The last_sequence_id cannot be updated.

last_sequence_id cannot be written.

object

object

The record object when supported by WAPI. Otherwise, the value is “None”.

Type

String.

This field supports nested return fields as described here.

Search

The field is not available for search.

Notes

The object is part of the base object.

The object cannot be updated.

object cannot be written.

object_type

object_type

The object type. This is undefined if the object is not supported.

Type

String.

Search

The field is not available for search.

Notes

The object_type is part of the base object.

The object_type cannot be updated.

object_type cannot be written.

unique_id

unique_id

The unique ID of the requested object.

Type

String.

Search

The field is not available for search.

Notes

The unique_id is part of the base object.

The unique_id cannot be updated.

unique_id cannot be written.

Search-only Fields

These fields are used only for searching. They are not actual members of the object and therefore the server does not return these fields with this name unless they are nested return fields.

all_object_types_supported_in_version

all_object_types_supported_in_version

You can use this search parameter to search for all objects supported in the specified WAPI. You must specify only one of the following search parameters: object_types, all_object_types_supported_in_version.

Type

String.

Valid values are:

• 2.5

• 2.7

Search

The field is available for search via

• ‘=’ (exact equality)

Notes

all_object_types_supported_in_version is a search-only field.

exclude_deleted

exclude_deleted

Determines whether deleted objects must be excluded or not.

Type

Bool.

Search

The field is available for search via

• ‘=’ (exact equality)

Notes

exclude_deleted is a search-only field.

object_types

object_types

The object types to search for. You must specify only one of thefollowing search parameters: object_types, all_object_types_supported_in_version.

Type

String.

Search

The field is available for search via

• ‘=’ (exact equality)

Notes

object_types is a search-only field.

start_sequence_id

start_sequence_id

The start sequence ID to search for.

Type

String.

Search

The field is available for search via

• ‘=’ (exact equality)

Notes

start_sequence_id is a search-only field.
