Updating variables with Schematics API
. To update variables by using the IBM Cloud® Schematics Python APIs, create two Python files, and provide a name of your choice for those files, for example, schematics_variables_update.py and schematics_env_class.py.
2. Copy and paste the schematics_variables_update.py and schematics_env_class.py Python example code requests to the respective Python files. 3. Copy and paste the config.json template file to a JSON file, for example config.json.
4. Change the following parameters as part of the request: * Provide the workspace ID w_id generated in both the following functions: schematic_obj.get_workspace(w_id="<w_id>) and schematic_obj.update_variables(w_id="<wi_id>").
5. Make sure to update the required parameters, such as api_key, ssh_key_name, cluster_prefix in the config.json file. 6. Run the Python script by using python3 to update the variables in the
Schematics workspace in the IBM Cloud.
The following parameters might not be required in config.json as the Schematics update variables API uses the workspace ID w_id to update the variables against that workspace.
