In the response for a GET /networks/<network-id> a list of subnet identifiers is returned. The name for the list attribute is just 'subnets'.

Which means that a POST/PUT will create/update the whole list. This is practical from server-side perspective, but has also drawbacks. Indeed it adds burden to the client; for instance, in order to add an element to the list you'll need a GET and then a PUT; and it also causes confusion because of the fact that our PUT actually implement patch semantics.<o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'> <o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'>Salvatore<o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'> <o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'>[1] <a href="http://docs.openstack.org/api/openstack-network/2.0/content/List_Networks_Detail.html#d6e858" target="_blank">http://docs.openstack.org/api/openstack-network/2.0/content/List_Networks_Detail.html#d6e858</a><o:p></o:p></p><div><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'> <o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'>On 16 November 2012 18:04, Youcef Laribi <<a href="mailto:Youcef.Laribi@eu.citrix.com" target="_blank">Youcef.Laribi@eu.citrix.com</a>> wrote:<o:p></o:p></p><div><div><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>Changing the subject line…</span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'> </span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>Health monitors “</span><span lang=EN style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Courier'>/health_monitors/</span><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>” are a top resource in the API and are retrieved/added/removed/updated through their CRUD operations on this top resource.</span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'> </span><o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal style='mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto'><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>The subresource “</span><span lang=EN style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:Courier'>/pools/{pool_id}/health_monitors</span><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D'>“ is used for associating already existing health monitors (created above) with an existing pool, or for retrieving the health monitors associated with a pool.

The idea is that you use POST/DELETE to create an delete API "resources" (which actually have UUIDs, for example, the "pool" in your example below) and then do a PUT to an "action" to cause some kind of change that you can affect on a resource (e.g., "add_health_monitor" or "remove_health_monitor"). It sounds like what you are proposing is more treating "health_monitors" almost as a "sub-resource", which is not really what the "actions" stuff was designed for. <o:p></o:p></p></div><div><p
