I am trying to create a softlayer S3 api storage account using price id but I am getting error invalid price id.

{"error":"Invalid price Cloud Object Storage - S3 API (177723) provided on the order container.","code":"SoftLayer_Exception_Order_Item_Invalid"}

also tried with 8177 with this getting following error,

{"error":"Invalid price MS SQL Server 2008 R2 - Enterprise - 2 processors (8177) provided on the order container.","code":"SoftLayer_Exception_Order_Item_Invalid"}

kindly help me on this.

It would be nice that you post your code for the order that must be the issue:

For me this RESTful request is working fine:

POST https://$USERID:[email protected]/rest/v3/SoftLayer_Product_Order/placeOrder

payload:

{
    "parameters": [
          {
            "packageId": 206,
            "prices":              [{"id":177723}]
        }
        ]
}

you can get the prices for your account using this restful:

GET https://$USERNAME:[email protected]/rest/v3/SoftLayer_Product_Package/206/getItemPrices

Maybe that is the issue the price for your account is different.

Thanks for reply, this works for me also.

I am using same request,

place_order = "https://USER_ID:[email protected]/rest/v3.1/SoftLayer_Product_Order/placeOrder"

payload = '{"parameters" : [{"complexType": "SoftLayer_Container_Product_Order_Network_Storage_Hub", "quantity": 1, "packageId": 206, "prices": [{"id": 177723}]}]}'

as per this reference link https://sldn.softlayer.com/blog/waelriac/managing-softlayer-object-storage-through-rest-apis
