Filter "portName" on connection list not working

[API_User]

Hello, for the endpoint GET https://api.equinix.com/ecx/v3/l2/seller/connections

I use it with the profileId filter and I get back many results. I go from page to page to list the connection I have on one specific port.

I would like to reduce those calls using the filter portName. However the result is always empty :

{
    "isFirstPage": true,
    "isLastPage": true,
    "totalCount": 0,
    "pageSize": 20,
    "content": [],
    "pageNumber": 0
}

Have anyone succeeded in getting this to work ?

Best regards,

For the seller api call (Endpoint : GET https://api.equinix.com/ecx/v3/l2/seller/connections ), the "portName" parameter filters the response based on the zsidePortName.

The search is case-sensitive. If you believe you have a valid issue can you pls share the portName.

Hello and thanks for the feedback. 

Here is an example:

• GET /ecx/v3/l2/seller/connections?profileId=9e17ad3e-66bb-459e-9373-5d9c0146512c
  • Returns some connections, example:
  • uuid: 91d0050d-903e-4f5c-881c-cdc7b748707c
  • zSidePortName: OVH-PA3-PA4-ECX_PRI-21365958

If I do:

GET https://api.equinix.com/ecx/v3/l2/seller/connections?portName=OVH-PA3-PA4-ECX_PRI-21365958&profileId...

or

GET /ecx/v3/l2/seller/connections?portName=OVH-PA3-PA4-ECX_PRI-21365958

Then the result is empty

{
    "isFirstPage": true,
    "isLastPage": true,
    "totalCount": 0,
    "pageSize": 20,
    "content": [],
    "pageNumber": 0
}

Hi, this is Equinix developer responding.

I have tried:

/ecx/v3/l2/seller/connections?pageSize=&pageNumber=&profileId=9e17ad3e-66bb-459e-9373-5d9c0146512c

And the response is being populated with correct values in response with field names sellerServiceUUID(profileId) and zSidePortName(portname).

I used the info of user that created the service profile to perform the test, as i don't have your user details.

Please can you create a ticket with Equinix support so we can look into your user detail permissions for viewing the connections.

Thanks.

This is the other URL I tried

/ecx/v3/l2/seller/connections?pageSize=&pageNumber=&portname=OVH-PA3-PA4-ECX_PRI-21365958&profileId=9e17ad3e-66bb-459e-9373-5d9c0146512c

Regarding the portName search not working,

/ecx/v3/l2/seller/connections?pageSize=&pageNumber=&portName=OVH-PA3-PA4-ECX_PRI-21365958

I am looking into it and will respond soon. the earlier URL with portName had a typo, please ignore that.

To confirm, are you the seller (z side) in this scenario? If not, that may be part of the issue. You can try using the /ecx/v3/l2/buyer/connections endpoint and using the buyerPortUUID query parameter - likely a little less error prone than using buyerPortName.
