Describe the bug
The SoftwareCatalogApi.upsert_catalog_entity does not accept string arguments, despite its type annotation and the API documentation ("Entity definition in raw JSON or YAML representation") suggesting that it should accept a string.
To Reproduce
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
- Run this script:
import json
from datadog_api_client import ApiClient, Configuration
from datadog_api_client.v2.api.software_catalog_api import SoftwareCatalogApi
payload: dict[str, Any] = {
'apiVersion': 'v3',
'kind': 'service',
'metadata': {
'name': 'my-service',
'contacts': [],
'displayName': 'my-service',
'description': 'my service description',
'links': [],
'owner': 'my-team',
'additionalOwners': [],
'tags': [],
},
'spec': {
'lifecycle': 'Stable',
'tier': 'critical',
'type': 'ecs-service',
}
}
configuration = Configuration()
with APiClient(configuration) as api_client:
catalog_api = SoftwareCatalogApi(api_client)
response = catalog_api.upsert_catalog_entity(body=json.dumps(payload))
print(response)
- observe that the response is a
400 and the response body contains an error:
{'errors': [{'title': 'Generic Error', 'detail': 'failed to parse entitties: failed preparsing step: error [yaml: unmarshal errors:\n line 1: cannot unmarshal !!str `{"apiVe...` into entity.T] while parsing yaml: \n "[... contents omitted for brevity ...]"'}]}
To me, this appears to be because it is not parsing the string as a YAML document body, but rather, as a single string element.
If you simply remove json.dumps from the body argument and send the dictionary directly, the request is successful (despite this failing static type analyses like mypy):
- response = catalog_api.upsert_catalog_entity(body=json.dumps(payload))
+ response = catalog_api.upsert_catalog_entity(body=payload) # works, but fails type-checking
Expected behavior
That an error does not occur and that YAML (or JSON, being a subset of YAML) body as a string containing a valid entity description is accepted by the API.
Environment and Versions (please complete the following information):
Reproduced on Python3.12 with datadog-api-client version 2.32.0
