Situation: using Genieacs download API to do firmware upgrade.

curl -i ‘[http://localhost:7557/devices/00236a-SR552n-SR552NA084%2D0003269/tasks?timeout=3000&connection\_request](http://localhost:7557/devices/00236a-SR552n-SR552NA084%252D0003269/tasks?timeout=3000&connection_request)’   
-X POST   
–data ‘{“name”: “download”, fileType:“1 Firmware Upgrade Image”, “file”: “tfpt://172.168.1.20/firmware.bin”}’

the firmware.bin is a sample file. I make sure the tftp url is correct. the CPE can download that file.

How can I can get below response from api?

Download Response  
Transfer Complete Response

</div>

please try using just the filename and upload the file to the genieacs.  
make sure, your cpe can reach the genieacs fs service and if it is on a different host or behind a proxy, please set the env variable correct, so that the cpe get’s the correct URL by the acs.

I’m assuming you used ‘tftp’ instead of ‘tfpt’ as the protocol.

Hi,

We are trying to implement “download” API and facing below error in ACS:-  
faultCode: “9003”  
faultString: Invalid arguments  
setParameterValuesFault: null

Could you share

1. How to resolve above issue
2. Correct syntax for POSTing “download” API
3. Configuration required for download API

Thanks in advance.

Thanks,  
Harry
