why? API disable hotspot user fail

Hi everyone

I have used this code to disable users in hotspot, but didn't work :(
Code: Select all
 mikrotik.Send("/ip/hotspot/user/set/=.name=user1=disabled=yes", True)
any advice ?
thanks

by the way, last line should be not 'mikrotik.Send("?comment=teste", True)' but 'mikrotik.Send("?comment=teste", False)'

and for you it should be
Code: Select all
mikrotik.Send("?name=user1", False)
message=no such command prefix
and what if just
Code: Select all
mikrotik.Send("/ip/hotspot/user/print", False)
?..

first, re-read the posts at that topic. you should do what you want in two steps. "=.id=*4EB" is .id, obtained from the first step

secont, what version of ROS do you use? queries (like '?comment=something') can be used since v3.21

        mikrotik.Send("=.proplist=.id", False)
        mikrotik.Send("?name=user1", False)
             For Each h As String In mikrotik.Read()
                 TextBox1.Text &= h
             Next
        mikrotik.Send("/ip/hotspot/user/set", False)
        mikrotik.Send("=.id=h", False)

not
Code: Select all
mikrotik.Send("/ip/hotspot/user/print", False)
mikrotik.Send("=.proplist=.id", False)
mikrotik.Send("?name=user1", False)
but
Code: Select all
mikrotik.Send("/ip/hotspot/user/print", True)
mikrotik.Send("=.proplist=.id", True)
mikrotik.Send("?name=user1", False)
- it's one command, not three commands

so, what does it return?

what programming language do you use?..

try removing second or third lines - see whether result changes (and don't forget about second argument, only in last line it should be False)

Code: Select all
        mikrotik.Send("/ip/hotspot/user/set")
        mikrotik.Send("=disabled=yes")
        mikrotik.Send("=.id=user1", True)

Code: Select all
        mikrotik.Send("/ip/hotspot/user/set")
        mikrotik.Send("=disabled=yes")
        mikrotik.Send("=.id=user1", True)
to make things clearer for other, what i quoted is one command with arguments you send to RouterOS through API. This example is in one specific implementation of API, without that wrapper:
/ip/hotspot/user/set
=disabled=yes
=.id=user1
and use .id value not name, to address entry, as that is unique number that is assigned to that entry and wont change over time.

=.id=user1
omg! it's working! so, in .id, you can send not only unique id of the item, but also the name!

when was it introduced? will it be supported in the future?

Sometimes it works. Also, that is possible because of some legacy stuff. I would not rely that that is possible in future versions.

EDIT:

it is official - if entry have name field it can be address that way using API. Full name should be supplied.
