Which URI are you using?

Hello Grant,

Called this API https://sddc-vra-01/catalog-service/api/consumer/entitledCatalogItemViews/69f101e2-1a1f-4c39-a41f-10...

and took the GET request template API and then called that API to get request template, changed the location in the template and submitted the request.

GrantOrchardVMware‌ It seems like a bug to me and it might need a PR to track it.

We need to specify ‘datacenter_location’ property as an entity reference as below

Example:
"datacenter_location": {
    "componentId": null,
    "classId": "Infrastructure.Compute.DataCenterLocations",
    "id": "London",
    "label": null
}
