settings_save_init

Tech

Initializes configuration update in the device. Since the update can take a long time, and the device can go offline in the process, it is done asynchronously. This call starts the process, and settings_save_reconnect checks the result. The specification of after how long, how often and for how long is the check to run is part of the return value.

If the submitted data contain a validation error an Error object will be returned. The individual violations will be listed in the suberrors attribute.

Params

attribute description
config_data*
Config Data
The new configuration data

Return

Note

Both error and result objects can be present in the response. This happens when data validation failed and config_data objects hold the actually validated data. These can differ slightly from the submitted data due to automatic tweaks to accommodate for configuration version, HW modules, SW keys etc..

If the supplied data were valid, and the update process started, the delay, interval, timeout and session_id must be present.
