I put together a script to update a switchport through the API. There are times when all the port values do not have to updated so for the field I would like to leave blank then when the updates are submitted through dashboard.switch.updateDeviceSwitchPort, I would like for it skip it and not update. Is this possible? Here is the section of my code that is in questions:
# Update settings

print ('----------------------------------------------------------------' + Style.RESET_ALL)

if port_type == ('Access'):
v_vlan = input ('Voice VLAN: ')

for field in fields:

print (f"{field}: {response[field]}")

main_menu()
