+**Manage VyOS configuration using REST API**
+

+Version added: 1.0.0

+
+
+Synopsis
+--------
+- Manages VyOS device configuration via the REST API.
+- Accepts configuration commands in CLI ``set``/``delete`` string format and applies them via the REST ``/configure`` endpoint.
+- Uses REST API (``connection=httpapi``) instead of CLI.

+
+Notes
+-----
+
+.. note::
+   - Requires ``ansible_connection=httpapi`` with the VyOS httpapi plugin.
+   - ``ansible_network_os`` must be set to ``vyos.rest.vyos``.
+   - Unlike the CLI collection's ``vyos_config``, this module does not support ``backup``, ``confirm``, or ``comment`` options as these are CLI-specific.
+   - Commands are parsed from CLI string format into REST API path arrays.
+
+
+
+Examples
+--------
+
+.. code-block:: yaml
+
+    - name: Apply configuration lines
+      vyos.rest.vyos_config:
+        lines:
+          - set system host-name router1
+          - set system domain-name example.com
+          - set interfaces ethernet eth0 description "WAN"
+        save: true
+
+    - name: Delete configuration
+      vyos.rest.vyos_config:
+        lines:
+          - delete protocols bgp
+        save: true
+
+    - name: Apply config from file
+      vyos.rest.vyos_config:
+        src: /tmp/vyos_config.txt
+        match: none
+        save: true
+
+    - name: Always apply without matching
+      vyos.rest.vyos_config:
+        lines:
+          - set system host-name router1
+        match: none
