Re: [Puppet Users] Appending to facts through REST api

You are correct. The REST API for facts does not have the ability to merge a new fact and value into the existing set. You could retrieve the current set, update it and replace it. Coukd you let me know what you're trying to accomplish? Maybe there is another approach. -Jeff On Jun 4, 2012, at
