Hello Team…

I did not find any Ansible collections in galaxy or ansible modules to automate Netbackup related activities . [eg: adding newly built VM into Netbackup schedules , other administration related activities etc.] . Even, I did not get it in public github repo?. So there only way we can do these ansible-netbackup automation either by Netbackup API or Netbackup CLI ? Please suggest.

Thanks,  
Jay

Hi @jayabalp Welcome to the Ansible Forum

If there is an API, you could use the [URI module](https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/collections/ansible/builtin/uri_module.html)

I saw this recently if you’re still looking for Veritas Netbackup ansible collection -

> **[GitHub - VeritasOS/netbackup-automation-platform](https://github.com/VeritasOS/netbackup-automation-platform)**
>
> Contribute to VeritasOS/netbackup-automation-platform development by creating an account on GitHub.

And reading through this Pull Request the repo provides an example on how to use other APIs you listed above -

Hopefully this helps!
