I'm trying to create/add/modify vApp networks through the REST API and got completely stuck. Even if I try to PUT the xml exactly how it is without changing or adding anything, I still get the same error-message. A working example or any kind of help would be appreciated.
Retrieve the vApp's NetworkConfigSection...
