Using Python SDK to create a DeviceGroup and subGroups | Product Discussions

I’m working on trying to build a script that will take some input (csv or stdin) to create a device group, and then also create multiple device groups under this one device group being specified.I have the python script working to create the first device group I need, but the “subGroups” feature does not seem to work or be populated and I was curious if anyone else had any luck with it?A snippet of my code looks like:infra_root = 'Network Infrastructure' infra_address = 'Test Location' infra_sub_groups = [ {"name":"Aggregation","fullPath":infra_root+"/"+infra_address+"/Aggregation"}, {"name":"Access","fullPath":infra_root+"/"+infra_address+"/Access"}, {"name":"Environmental","fullPath":infra_root+"/"+infra_address+"/Environmental"}, {"name":"PDU","fullPath":infra_root+"/"+infra_address+"/PDU"}, {"name":"UPS","fullPath":infra_root+"/"+infra_address+"/UPS"} ] body = { #"fullPath":infra_root+"/"+infra_address, "groupType":"Normal", "disableAlerting":False, "subGroups":infra_sub_groups, "enableNetflow":False, "parentId":18, "name":infra_address }The script fires off without error and creates he “infra_address” group no problem (under the parent I have). But the output of the script shows me sub_groups is blank:{'applies_to': '', 'aws_regions_info': '', 'aws_test_result': None, 'aws_test_result_code': 200, 'azure_regions_info': '', 'azure_test_result': None, 'azure_test_result_code': 200, 'created_on': 1676065949, 'custom_properties': [], 'default_collector_description': None, 'default_collector_id': 0, 'description': '', 'disable_alerting': False, 'effective_alert_enabled': True, 'enable_netflow': False, 'extra': {}, 'full_path': 'Network Infrastructure/Test Location', 'gcp_regions_info': '', 'gcp_test_result': None, 'gcp_test_result_code': 200, 'group_status': 'normal', 'group_type': 'Normal', 'has_netflow_enabled_devices': False, 'id': 164, 'name': 'Test Location', 'num_of_aws_devices': 0, 'num_of_azure_devices': 0, 'num_of_direct_devices': 0, 'num_of_direct_sub_groups': 0, 'num_of_gcp_devices': 0, 'num_of_hosts': 0, 'parent_id': 18, 'sub_groups': [], 'user_permission': 'write'}Doing it this way will make my life easier instead of running a script over and over again to populate the sub device groups.Thanks!
