         "if/interfaces/interface/name": "br230",
    }
    operation: "get"
- name: Modify some attributes in VLAN
  opx_cps:
    module_name: "dell-base-if-cmn/if/interfaces/interface"
    attr_data: {
         "cps/key_data":
            { "if/interfaces/interface/name": "br230" },
         "dell-if/if/interfaces/interface/untagged-ports": ["e101-008-0"],
    }
    operation: "set"
- name: Delete VLAN
  opx_cps:
    module_name: "dell-base-if-cmn/if/interfaces/interface"

         "if/interfaces/interface/name": "br230",
    }
    operation: "delete"

Return Values

Common return values are documented here, the following are the fields unique to this module:

Key Returned Description
candidate
dict
all CPS operations other than "get"
CPS input attribute data used to compare with running configuration

Sample:
{'base-if-vlan/if/interfaces/interface/id': 230, 'if/interfaces/interface/type': 'ianaift:l2vlan', 'if/interfaces/interface/name': 'br230'}
commit_event
bool
when commit_event is set to True in module options
Denotes if auto-commit event is set

Sample:
True
config
dict
when CPS operations set, delete
Returns the CPS Get output i.e. the running configuration before performing the CPS transaction

Sample:
{'dell-base-if-cmn/if/interfaces/interface/if-index': 46, 'dell-if/if/interfaces/interface/phys-address': '', 'base-if-vlan/if/interfaces/interface/id': 230, 'if/interfaces/interface/name': 'br230', 'if/interfaces/interface/type': 'ianaift:l2vlan', 'dell-if/if/interfaces/interface/vlan-type': 1, 'dell-if/if/interfaces/interface/learning-mode': 1, 'dell-if/if/interfaces/interface/mtu': 1532, 'if/interfaces/interface/enabled': 0}
db
bool
when db is set to True in module options
Denotes if CPS DB transaction was performed

Sample:
True
diff
dict
all CPS operations other than "get"
The actual configuration that will be pushed comparing the running configuration and input attributes

Sample:
{'base-if-vlan/if/interfaces/interface/id': 230, 'if/interfaces/interface/type': 'ianaift:l2vlan', 'if/interfaces/interface/name': 'br230'}
response
list
when a CPS transaction is successfully performed.
Output from the CPS transaction.

Sample:
[{'data': {'cps/object-group/return-code': 0, 'base-if-vlan/if/interfaces/interface/id': 230, 'if/interfaces/interface/type': 'ianaift:l2vlan', 'if/interfaces/interface/name': 'br230', 'dell-base-if-cmn/if/interfaces/interface/if-index': 46}, 'key': 'target/dell-base-if-cmn/if/interfaces/interface'}]
