vRA 7.0 - Starting XaaS blueprints from API

[JonXXVIII]

Hi,

Has anyone managed to launch a XaaS blueprint from the API in vRA 7.0.0 (or later)?

When using the same method that I use for standard blueprints I get an error:

500 Internal Server Error - System exception. getInstanceSpecificSchema for (clsid=asd.catalogItem, cid=7223db0d-7412-4499-a620-196e4ab24e29)

Method used:

POST to /catalog-service/api/consumer/entitledCatalogItems/7223db0d-7412-4499-a620-196e4ab24e29/requests

This is on a XaaS blueprint with no inputs.

Thanks in advance.

Just to add: the above error occurs when trying to get /template for that blueprint too. 

I'm also having trouble launching custom actions against provisioned Resources. For example, when posting to /catalog-service/api/consumer/resources/<resourceId>/actions/<customActionId>/requests - (as recommended by the API guide) a request is created but immediately stops with (405) Method Not Allowed. Not amount of hacking around seems to make it work 🙂

Trying to retrieve /template for the same item gives me "Unsupported operation".

Anyone know if this is this a 7.0.0 thing?
