While you are on the scripts topic :) I'm needing some help please :) I'm trying to rename a group of devices to use FQDN on the name property and its not quiet working. deviceName gets the response i want, it returns 'server.somedomain.local' but when i try to use deviceName in the data variable value of "name" its not working it returns '("name":deviceName)' I know I'm missing something simple ??

#Loop through each device & update name
for i in jsonResponse['data']['items']:
    deviceId = str(i['id'])
    deviceName = str(i['displayName']) + ".somedommain.local"

    #Request Info
    httpVerb ='PATCH'
    resourcePath = '/device/devices/'+deviceId
    queryParams ='?patchFields=name'
    data = '("name":deviceName)'

    #Construct URL
    url = 'https://'+ Company +'.logicmonitor.com/santaba/rest' + resourcePath +queryParams
