iControl REST - SNAT TRANSLATION

I'm trying to remove a snat translation from a SNAT POOL LIST using the RESTful API. 
Returning error :

{"code":403,"message":"Operation is not supported on component /ltm/snat-translation.","errorStack":[]}

curl -k -u xyz:xyz https://$lbip/mgmt/tm/ltm/snat-translation -H "Content-Type: application/json" -X DELETE "{\`"name\`":\`"$snatdest\`"}"

Also have tried going directly to the member:

curl -k -u xyz:xyz https://$lbip/mgmt/tm/ltm/snat-translation/$snatdest -H "Content-Type: application/json" -X DELETE "{\`"name\`":\`"$snatdest\`"}"


First I was trying to remove the address from the SNAT LIST itself but it was deleting my entire list:

curl -k -u xyz:xyz https://$lbip/mgmt/tm/ltm/snatpool/$snat -H "Content-Type: application/json" -X DELETE "{\`"members\`":[\`"$snatdest\`"]}" 

Anything would help, running 11.5.1, thanks!

    Hi Josh,

     

    you cannot address directly snat-translation, if you do that in the gui, you will have an error telling you the adress is used by a snatpool.

     

    What you need to do is to send a PUT request to snatpool/$snat and submit a new member table directly with your new values (ie minus the one you want to remove).

     

    for example if your table was:

     

    { "members":["/Common/1.1.1.1","/Common/1.1.1.2"] } and you want to remove 1.1.1.2 you will send :

     

    { "members":["/Common/1.1.1.1"] }

    Ok so just to be clear in the GUI when you have a snat pool with 100 addresses and you chose one, remove, update. You are in fact just posting 99 addresses not deleting 1?

    gui is quiete different, as for the tmsh you may have an add/remove members.

     

    On the other hand with REST API you have put/patch methods to modifiy a collection of value pais, but no method to modify part of value of a name/value pair.
