501 error when attempting to download exported ASM policy

I am able to use iControlREST to export an ASM policy to a file but when I attempt to download it I get a 501 Error:

}

 

I'm using a simple get like described in the documentation:

curl -u myuser https://myf5/mgmt/tm/asm/file-transfer/downloads/1443208671.4.xml

I'm running 11.5.2. Anyone seen this error?

    It looks like you are trying to download something which does not exist. "Invalid path" = "file not found"

    I'm guessing "rest_code:REST_NOT_IMPLEMENTED" means that function doesn't quite work properly yet.

    So in 11.5 that method of downloading the policy is not implemented. You must down load the policy inline. This is done by setting "inline" to True.

     

    Once status = COMPLETED the data will be in the 'file' property of 'result'

      Hi kman, how did you export the asm policy? I was trying to save the asm file in the same way that I save ucs files however this is not working. Thank you.
