Adding SSH keys to Softlayer JSON order for Bare metal

Question

I was wondering how to add ssh keys that are within softlayer to be added to a json bare metal order. Through the GUI, it would be added at the end of the order before you click submit

wondering if it's just with:

productOrder = { "quantity": 1, "location": 1234, "packageId": 1234, "sshKeyIds": 1234, "hardware": [ ...

I did a verifyOrder() but not sure if it's correct

If you are using: SoftLayer_Product_Order::placeOrder method, take a look the following example:

"""
Order a new server with SSH Keys

Thank you, I tried this out before and i got this in the receipt: `"sshKeys": [{'sshKeyIds': []}],` In the sshKeys section, it shows nothing which is why I was concerne — Patrick, Nov 05 '16 at 14:42
I know my ssh keys / id's are correct by verifying from the getSshKeys function — Patrick, Nov 05 '16 at 15:17
I have success to define and see the ssh keys in the receipt, could you provide the full code that you tried? if you continue having this issue — Ruber Cuellar Valenzuela, Nov 07 '16 at 14:09
from pprint import pprint as pp import SoftLayer `list_keys = client['Account'].getSshKeys() pp(list_keys)` Is what I'm using to get the ssh keys and i use the id. For the actual json order, it basically looks like yours — Patrick, Nov 07 '16 at 16:22
Yes, that's the way to get sshKeys, please, could you provide the full code that you are using to place the order? — Ruber Cuellar Valenzuela, Nov 07 '16 at 17:41

i see that I have RAID option in the prices but have 2 raid setups in the `storageGroups` is that okay? — Patrick, Nov 07 '16 at 22:29
You should use this price: **141945 - DISK_CONTROLLER_RAID** instead of: **141965 - DISK_CONTROLLER_RAID_10**, reviewing your template. Reviewing your template, you are configuring partitions for the first raid (RAID 10), It's not possible to set custom partitions for the first RAID. To get more information about RAID configuration see: [Ordering RAID Through API](http://sldn.softlayer.com/blog/hansKristian/Ordering-RAID-through-API) — Ruber Cuellar Valenzuela, Nov 08 '16 at 18:56
Sorry for delay, I was reviewing the RAID configuration from your template — Ruber Cuellar Valenzuela, Nov 08 '16 at 18:57
