49 RESTful Server Configuration with iDRAC RESTful API
A.2 iDRAC RESTful API – SCP Export, Preview, and Import APIs
Using any iDRAC-supported web browser, the various parameters used for RESTful SCP export, preview and
import operations can be viewed. Start an iDRAC-supported web browser and enter this URL:
https://<iDRACIP>/redfish/v1/Managers/iDRAC.Embedded.1
After entering the URL, input the iDRAC administrator user name and password when prompted. After you
enter the credentials, JSON output similar to the one shown below is displayed.
In the JSON output, under the “OEM” section are the supported methods for the SCP feature including
ExportSystemConfiguration, ImportSystemConfiguration and ImportSystemConfigurationPreview.
Each method section details the supported parameters; specification of required or optional parameters for
each method can be found in the iDRAC Redfish API Guide available at dell.com/idracmanuals.
