KVStoreCollection using wrong argument in "update_index"

[seiimonn]

Describe the bug When updating the index of a collection the following error is given:

splunklib.binding.HTTPError: HTTP 400 Bad Request -- Argument "index.ho1" is not supported by this handler.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

>>> import splunklib.client as client
>>> c = client.connect()
>>> c.kvstore.create("example_collection")
>>> c.kvstore["example_collection"].update_index("get_fast",{"important_field": 1})

Expected behavior Update of accelerated fields for collection.

Logs or Screenshots

>>> c.kvstore["example_collection"].update_index("get_fast",{"important_field": 1})

Splunk (please complete the following information):

• Version: 9.0.2
• OS: Ubuntu 20.04 LTS
• Deployment: tested on single-instance

SDK (please complete the following information):

• Version: 1.6.19
• Language Runtime Version: Python 3.7
• OS: Ubuntu 20.04 LTS

Additional context I guess that the issue is based on index vs accelerations. An acceleration in a collection is an index on the underlying MongoDB. Patching the line https://github.com/splunk/splunk-sdk-python/blob/master/splunklib/client.py#L3724 to kwargs['accelerated_fields.' + name] = value if isinstance(value, six.string_types) else json.dumps(value) fixes the issue.

Hi @seiimonn we are looking into the issue and will get back to you soon.

Hi @seiimonn , support for accelerated_fields is added in SDK and it will be available in the next release.

@seiimonn request you to pull the latest SDK release v1.7.3 with the added support and let us know in case of any issue. Thanks!
