Infoblox AllocateNextAvailable

Infoblox AllocateNextAvailable

Certified
Enterprise Edition

Allocate the next available address from a subnet or address block in Infoblox Universal DDI

Calls the Cloud Services Portal nextavailableip endpoint on parentId (a subnet or address block id) to obtain a candidate address, then creates an ipam/address object for it.

Unlike the confirmed-atomic NIOS WAPI func: nextavailableip expression (which selects AND reserves the address in a single request), this task implements a best-effort "get candidate then create" pattern: the candidate is fetched with one request and reserved with a second. Universal DDI's exact atomicity guarantee for this sequence has not been verified against a live tenant — under concurrent callers a race is possible where two callers are handed the same candidate before either creates its reservation. Serialize calls to this task per subnet/address block if you need a stronger guarantee.

Properties

API key

Infoblox Cloud Services Portal API key, sent as Authorization: Token <apiKey>. Generate it from the CSP under Administration > Authentication > API Keys.

Parent subnet or address block identifier

id of the ipam/subnet or ipam/address_block to draw the next available address from.

IP space

id of the ipam/ip_space the reserved address belongs to (for example: ipam/ip_space/).

Assets this task consumes as inputs or produces as outputs, for lineage tracking and the asset graph (Enterprise Edition). A flow declaring this property on a task is rejected in the open-source edition.

Definitions
assetFailureBehaviorstring
Possible Values
IGNOREFAILWARN

Asset failure behavior

Behavior applied to the task state when a declared asset fails to render, emit, or be persisted (e.g. a lock conflict): FAIL escalates it to FAILED, WARN (default) warns it if it would otherwise succeed, IGNORE leaves the state untouched.

enableAutobooleanstring

Whether to auto-register assets referenced dynamically at runtime that are not statically declared in inputs or outputs.

inputsarray

The assets consumed as inputs.

Comment

Optional comment stored with the reserved address.

HTTP client configuration

Optional HTTP client overrides (timeouts, TLS settings, proxies). Uses platform defaults when omitted.

Definitions
allowFailedbooleanstring
Defaultfalse

If true, allow a failed response code (response code >= 400)

allowedResponseCodesarray
SubTypeinteger

List of response code allowed for this request

auth

The authentication to use.

type*object
passwordstring

The password for HTTP basic authentication.

usernamestring

The username for HTTP basic authentication.

type*object
tokenstring

The token for bearer token authentication.

type*object
passwordstring

The password for HTTP Digest authentication.

usernamestring

The username for HTTP Digest authentication.

defaultCharsetstring
DefaultUTF-8

The default charset for the request.

enabledTcpExtendedKeepAlivebooleanstring
Defaulttrue

Whether to enable TCP Keep-Alive extended socket options (TCP_KEEPIDLE, TCP_KEEPINTERVAL, TCP_KEEPCOUNT).

Set to false when running on Windows workers, as these extended socket options are not supported by the Windows JDK and will cause connection failures.

followRedirectsbooleanstring
Defaulttrue

Whether redirects should be followed automatically.

logsarray
SubTypestring
Possible Values
REQUEST_HEADERSREQUEST_BODYRESPONSE_HEADERSRESPONSE_BODY

The enabled log.

proxy

The proxy configuration.

addressstring

The address of the proxy server.

passwordstring

The password for proxy authentication.

portintegerstring

The port of the proxy server.

typestring
DefaultDIRECT
Possible Values
DIRECTHTTPSOCKS

The type of proxy to use.

usernamestring

The username for proxy authentication.

ssl

The SSL request options

insecureTrustAllCertificatesbooleanstring

Whether to disable checking of the remote SSL certificate.

Only applies if no trust store is configured. Note: This makes the SSL connection insecure and should only be used for testing. If you are using a self-signed certificate, set up a trust store instead.

timeout

The timeout configuration.

connectTimeoutstring

The time allowed to establish a connection to the server before failing.

readIdleTimeoutstring
DefaultPT5M

The time allowed for a read connection to remain idle before closing it.

Defaulthttps://csp.infoblox.com

Infoblox Universal DDI (Cloud Services Portal) URL

Base URL of the Infoblox Cloud Services Portal. Defaults to https://csp.infoblox.com (US region). Use the regional host matching your tenant, for example https://csp.eu.infoblox.com (EU) or another Infoblox-published regional endpoint. Trailing slash is optional.

Allocated address

The address that was selected and reserved.

Reserved address identifier

Universal DDI id of the created address. Pass this to Release to delete the reservation.
