Redfish API or Python script for downloading driver/firmware updates

Question

Hi guys, I'am currently looking for a script or API function that can download firmware updates for a IDrac.In our organisation we cant use the 'Dell Repository Manager' and 'Dell OpenManage', because both tools are labeld as a 'black box'. So I wanted to ask you, is there a script(i.e. on Github) or Redfish API command that can download firmware/driver updates?Otherwise I have to write a xml parser for the 'Catalog.xml' to get the download URL's for the firmware/driver. best regards

Hello @drm9000,

I think you should wait for some users who already performed this operation and they can offer you some advice with a custom solution. Therefore, I will let the post open in case anybody can offer you some help.
