Description

According to https://www.rudder-project.org/rudder-api-doc/#api-Groups-createGroup
new group can be created with the exact "id". But as for Rudder 4.0.2, "id" setting is silently ignored and new UUID is generated.
For example try to PUT the following json:

{
  "id": "9a92538b-d01f-4157-9fff-ed1d1a8d3443",
  "category": "GroupRoot",
  "enabled": true,
  "displayName": "###TEST#",
  "query": {
    "select": "node",
    "composition": "And",
    "where": [
      {
        "objectType": "node",
        "attribute": "nodeHostname",
        "comparator": "regex",
        "value": ".*\\.xxx\\.tld" 
      }
    ]
  }
}

The answer looks like

{"action": "createGroup","id": "2ef61fa0-426d-40a1-99c1-c1f62b4d5664","result": "success"…

Then check the "id" in answer body / WEB-UI against the requested value.

This seriously complicates group & rule transmitting between 2 nodes through REST-API because of need in translation dictionary.

Sorry, Vincent. What version is "recent"? "Latest release: 4.0.2" is affected (I found the problem affects at least Groups and Rules PUT API).
Upcoming 4.0.3? It's really important for me as it can significantly reduce my current task.

As for current Rudder 4.1.5, uuid is ignored in creation of all objects except of directives (and parameters, as they are passed by name).

Those techniques which are constructed from NCF are in fact out-of-API. The workaround is to transfer ncf tree to new server, then save each technique through web-ui.
After that, ncf becomes available in directives.

https://github.com/ds-voix/VX-PBX/blob/master/RUDDER/rudder-replica.py (Rudder-Rudder replication with inheritance model) was updated to last version.
It contains a number of workarounds against current API bugs.

We need to accept creation of object with a predefined ID, else we won't be able to synchronise things between rudder instances by API.
We need to check that the ID is not already present and fail on that case.
