Assigning to Shikha for review.
Hi Tina/Marianne/Josh, I wanted to confirm the following things: 1) We had some documentation on create_automation_request in Management Engine 5.1 Integration_Guide, https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-US/Red_Hat_CloudForms/2.0/html-single/Management_Engine_5.1_Integration_Guide/index.html#CreateAutomationRequest. Is this content still valid for CFME 4.0 ? 2) As I understand, Automation request needs to be created and approved as the 1st step of the Automate model. Is the following location appropriate for adding this content? A new section, 'Create Automate Request' before https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en/red-hat-cloudforms/version-4.0/scripting-actions-in-cloudforms/#creating_a_domain 3) Regarding this comment from the bug, Automation guide needs to cover the usage of create_automation_request along with an example on how to pass the zone information for a create_automation_request, Can you provide me an example on how to pass the zone information for a create_automation_request? 4) I researched this topic in ManageIQ forums, and found the following link: https://github.com/ManageIQ/guides/blob/master/proposals/rest_api_provisioning_automation.md Do you think the information in this link is relevant to this bug and should be captured in the proposed section? Thank you in advance for your help. Regards, Shikha Nansi
