Notes

Note

  • SDK Method used are path_trace.PathTrace.retrieves_the_summary_of_a_specific_path_trace, path_trace.PathTrace.retrieves_the_summary_of_all_previous_path_traces,

  • Paths used are get /dna/intent/api/v1/pathTraces, get /dna/intent/api/v1/pathTraces/{id},

  • Supports check_mode

  • The plugin runs on the control node and does not use any ansible connection plugins,

  • but instead uses the embedded connection manager from Cisco CATALYST SDK

  • Requires Python >= 3.10, matching the controller Python versions supported by the collection's minimum ansible-core version (see the collection README for the current ansible-core / Python compatibility range)
