Hi,  
I am trying to use the API of susemanager, with the use of python 2. I can make a connection. i can list groups, see what servers are in the group, delete and create groups. Everthing is fine so far.  
But now i want to add servers to the systemgroup. The syntax in de api document is:  
Parameters

- string sessionKey
- string systemGroupName
- array:  
\* int - serverId
- boolean add - True to add to the group, False to remove.

My syntax in python is: client.systemgroup.addOrRemoveSystem(key, “Groupname”, “‘id’: 1000000”, ‘True’)  
but i getting the fault -1 return code and the error Could not find translator for class java.lang.string to interface java.util.list  
I know that the serverid must be done in a list(array) but it should not make a difference to directly put it in like i did.  
The obviously must be something wrong with the syntax. Anyone can help me out?

The name of the field is “serverIds” not “id”, and also it should be a list
