Custom private networks: How to find out the name of the network an application belongs to?

[tmaier]

I am currently investigating Custom private networks for my use case. I want to deploy each service of my application into a dedicated 6PN and use flycast to connect that application to the consuming application/network

For this, I plan to use deterministic names for the vnet. Aligned to the name of the application.
However, I also wonder how to find out the name of a 6PN after creating the application. And also how to find out the name of the default 6PN.

Hi… It looks like a fellow user found a way for the first part recently, although it’s not very pretty:

@Pravin1

The List Apps API gets the right info though, there seems to be some discrepancy between flyctl and the Machines API

$ curl -i -X GET -H "Authorization: Bearer ${FLY_API_TOKEN}" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  "${FLY_API_HOSTNAME}/v1/apps?org_slug=personal"

{"total_apps":1,"apps":[
  {"id":"p7vx1j0008wqk3z5",
   "name":"app-foo",
   "machine_count":1,
   "network":"app-foo-nw"}
]}

[Formatting tweaked.]

(This was for something originally created via fly apps create app-foo --network app-foo-nw.)

Hope this helps a little!
