Hi everyone
I try to create my own API in vb.net language
I have used this code to disable users in hotspot, but didn’t work 
mikrotik.Send("/ip/hotspot/user/set/=.name=user1=disabled=yes", True)
any advice ?
thanks
thanks for replay ,
I have tested this code, but also failed 
mikrotik.Send("/ip/hotspot/user/print", True)
mikrotik.Send("=.proplist=.id", True)
mikrotik.Send("?comment=teste", True)
not ‘=.proplist’, but ‘.proplist’
thank you so much for your help
i face this message
!trap=message=no such command prefix!done
what can i do to disable hotspot account using API ?
by the way, last line should be not ‘mikrotik.Send(“?comment=teste”, True)’ but ‘mikrotik.Send(“?comment=teste”, False)’
and for you it should be
mikrotik.Send("?name=user1", False)
and what if just
mikrotik.Send("/ip/hotspot/user/print", False)
?..
I have used the search by name and comment and all of them do not work .
if i use just this code , it bring my customer data without disable any account .
by the way, what this code do ?
mikrotik.Send("=.id=*4EB", True)
first, re-read the posts at that topic. you should do what you want in two steps. “=.id=*4EB” is .id, obtained from the first step
secont, what version of ROS do you use? queries (like ‘?comment=something’) can be used since v3.21
ok , this is the complete code
mikrotik.Send("/ip/hotspot/user/print", False)
mikrotik.Send("=.proplist=.id", False)
mikrotik.Send("?name=user1", False)
For Each h As String In mikrotik.Read()
TextBox1.Text &= h
Next
mikrotik.Send("/ip/hotspot/user/set", False)
mikrotik.Send("=.id=h", False)
mikrotik.Send("=disabled=yes", False)
my ROS is 3.30
thanks .
not
mikrotik.Send("/ip/hotspot/user/print", False)
mikrotik.Send("=.proplist=.id", False)
mikrotik.Send("?name=user1", False)
but
mikrotik.Send("/ip/hotspot/user/print", True)
mikrotik.Send("=.proplist=.id", True)
mikrotik.Send("?name=user1", False)
- it’s one command, not three commands
so, what does it return?
ok , what can i do to make it one command not three ?
because the above code return the same message !
can i use something like this, to make the code one command ?
mikrotik.Send("/ip/hotspot/user/print", True), ("=.proplist=.id", True),("?name=user1", False)
thanks .
please quote exact code and exact response
sorry for disturbing you
this code
mikrotik.Send("/ip/hotspot/user/print", True)
mikrotik.Send("=.proplist=.id", True)
mikrotik.Send("?name=user1", False)
return ( !trap=message=no such command prefix!done )
i don’t know how can i thank you for your help 
what programming language do you use?..
try removing second or third lines - see whether result changes (and don’t forget about second argument, only in last line it should be False)
finally I made it 
this code is working well
mikrotik.Send("/ip/hotspot/user/set")
mikrotik.Send("=disabled=yes")
mikrotik.Send("=.id=user1", True)
thank you so much for your help and your support
to make things clearer for other, what i quoted is one command with arguments you send to RouterOS through API. This example is in one specific implementation of API, without that wrapper:
/ip/hotspot/user/set
=disabled=yes
=.id=user1
and use .id value not name, to address entry, as that is unique number that is assigned to that entry and wont change over time.
=.id=user1
omg! it’s working! so, in .id, you can send not only unique id of the item, but also the name!
when was it introduced? will it be supported in the future?
Sometimes it works. Also, that is possible because of some legacy stuff. I would not rely that that is possible in future versions.
EDIT:
it is official - if entry have name field it can be address that way using API. Full name should be supplied.
super!
maybe, it should be mentioned in the Wiki? =)
here is some information about it:
