[openstack-dev] [Neutron][API Doc] Easy way to generate JSON output for doc?
Paul, Depending on what version of keystone you are utilizing there are a couple options to use the UUID token format (instead of PKI). Very recent (current master) of keystone uses a pluggable provider system. To set the provider to uuid, in the [token] section set the option: provider=keystone.token.providers.uuid.Provider In older versions I believe the option (still in the [token] section) is: token_format=UUID I hope this info helps you out some. Cheers, Morgan Fainberg Sent from my iPhone (please excuse the brevity) 31/07/2013, Paul Michali : Yeah I was playing with that, however I'm having an issue with authentication… If I do a request to keystone to get the auth ID, I get a huge key, which I have to try to paste into a subsequent request to neutron. Is there a way to force this to use the old style (small) auth ID, no auth, or username/password for auth on the requests? I've been playing with using the CLI and --verbose, and then trying to extract the RESP:… output and run through JSON. A bit jacky, but it sorta works.

Yes that will! Copying and pasting the public key is difficult. Will try this out. Regards.

Hi! I'm writing API doc pages for VPNaaS and was wondering if there are any tools/scripts to make it easy to generate the needed JSON result output for various operations?
