Hi,I am not a developer but I am very familiar with Equinix portals (ECX and ECP) and now I'd like to try out your APIs before recommending to my development team to proceed with the integration. Where do I start, any advice?

Can I create L3 connections through the API? I can only see L2 connections in the API documentationRegards

Hello,I'm playing around with the Sandbox APIs and stumbled upon this problem.When trying to get a list a services I get this error message: Request GET https://sandboxapi.equinix.com/ecx/v3/l2/serviceprofiles/services Result { "fault": { "faultstring": "Invalid API call as no apiproduct match found", "detail": { "errorcode": "keymanagement.service.InvalidAPICallAsNoApiProductMatchFound" } }} In the long run I'd like to implement the Sandbox APIs in our production environment to serve as a kind-of dry-run feature. That means if we start a dry-run of our processes they will point to the Sandbox environment instead of the production APIs. Is it wise to do that or is the data for the Sandbox APIs changing often? I've read somewhere that the Sandbox environment is updated every couple of months. Thanks

Is there any way to increase or decrease speed value and speed unit of an existing connection and without recreating the connection? In the documentation it says PATCH method for /ecx/v3/l2/connections/{uuid} only accepts AccessKey, SecretKey paramsThanks.

Hi,I have been playing around with your ECXF APIs in Sandbox and I was wondering whether I can request new ports so that I can use distinct ports to test out different use cases?

Hello,I'd like to know how often do you synchronize your sandbox environment with production environment?

Hello, I know Equinix has APIs for initiation (i.e Create Shipment order) but I was wondering whether you have plans to introduce Update and Cancel APIs for your services.

Hi, How often does the port statistics/utilization data get updated as I want to poll the values based on those intervals?

I can get the statistics for a physical port. But is there a way to break it out based on connections or vlan ports? Since the physical port is a shared service that contains multiple Expressroute circuits it would be useful to get the connection or vlan usage.Thanks ...

Hello, A few questions for API access and usage. Please can you give me the interval of query for your different levels (power/temperature/etc...). I want to configure a prob who will call your API every x minutes according to your granularity. What is the maximum query per second on the API? Did you have a limitation with token creation (quantity / over time / other)? Are there plans to have the possibility to stream data to an endpoint, I see specific endpoint like GCP/AWS/Azure but what if I want to have my own endpoint? Thanks for your answers,

For same user and account, I am getting Error for different IBX with status code 3001 and message Permission Denied

Hello,I have been reading the ECXF API documentation and I noticed that both "ECX" and "ECXF" abbreviations are used in the V3 APIs migration section. Are ECX and ECXF two separate products?

Hello, May I know the capabilities and limitations of sandbox environment and how close is it to the production environment?

We are looking to find out utilization stats for specific ECX virtual ports over given duration say for last 1 week and cost associated with data transfer. Is there any API Available to retrieve this Information?

Hi, We noticed that some APIs aren't available in the sandbox but only in production of the Equinix API. Do we have a way to test this? These APIs seem to be available in the playground-zone These works on Prod but not sandbox: list userports list metros list buyer/connections For example: curl -X GET "$url/ecx/v3/l2/common/metros" -H "accept: application/json" -H "Authorization: Bearer $token" {"fault":{"faultstring":"Invalid API call as no apiproduct match found","detail":{"errorcode":"keymanagement.service.InvalidAPICallAsNoApiProductMatchFound"}}}% curl -X GET "$url/ecx/v3/port/userport" -H "accept: application/json" -H "Authorization: Bearer $token"{"fault":{"faultstring":"Invalid API call as no apiproduct match found","detail":{"errorcode":"keymanagement.service.InvalidAPICallAsNoApiProductMatchFound"}}}% curl -X GET "$url/ecx/v3/l2/buyer/connections" -H "accept: application/json" -H "Authorization: Bearer $token"{"fault":{"faultstring":"Invalid API call as no apiproduct match

Hi,I got a decent idea of the Equinix sandbox environment from this post https://developer.equinix.com/forum/sand-box-how-use but I'd like to know how to migrate from Sandbox to production once I have completed development.Would the same credentials work?

Hi, I would like to know whether Equinix Authentication incorporates TLS or SSL in addition to usernames, passwords, client id, and client secrets? If yes, what TLS versions are supported?

Hi, I'm receiving "The system had encountered an unexpected problem and we are tracking it with error code." error when attempting to post work visits or retrieve location details. I'm using correct credentials and the correct bearer token but there seems to be an issue with any request I make to the sandbox API. https://sandboxapi.equinix.com/v1/orders/workvisit/locations?detail=true   { "serviceDetails": { "schedule": { "endDateTime": "2020-01-20T15:54:04+00:00", "startDateTime": "2020-01-20T14:54:04+00:00" }, "visitors": [ { "company": "xxxxxxx", "firstName": "[Test]NTTS01", "lastName": "[Test]NTTS01" }, { "lastName": "person", "firstName": "A", "company": "A corp" } ] }, "contacts": [ { "contactType": "NOTIFICATION", "userName": "xxxxxxx
