Hi @arnoldthebat ,

Thank you for raising this issue, you are right, ssl-certificate data type changed from string to array since FortiOS7.4.2, I will report it to the development team for fixing, here is a temporary workaround solution for you, sorry for any inconvenience.

  - name: config firewall vip
    fortios_json_generic:
      vdom: '{{ vdom }}'
      json_generic:
        method: POST
        path: /api/v2/cmdb/firewall/vip
        jsonbody: '
                {
                    "extintf": "any",
                    "extip": "2.3.4.5",
                    "extport": "23",
                    "name": "vip_json2",
                    "server-type": "https",
                    "type": "server-load-balance",
                    "ssl-mode": "full",
                    "ssl-certificate": [
                        {
                            "name": "Fortinet_Factory"
                        }
                    ]
                }
          '
    register: info
  - name: display vars
    debug: msg="{{info}}"

Thanks,
Maxx

Hi @arnoldthebat

Please install the latest version 2.3.6 and try this module again! I will close this ticket as the issue has been fixed in this version. Use the parameter 'ssl_certificate_dict' in your playbook if the fortiOS firmware version is >=7.4.2

https://ansible-galaxy-fortios-docs.readthedocs.io/en/latest/gen/fortios_firewall_vip.html

ssl_certificate_dict:
    - name: Fortinet_Factory
    - name: "Fortinet_Factory_Backup"

Thanks,
Jie
