While the exception list is being created nicely, it doesn't actually get activated. You have to click into it manually and save it to make the exception work. This makes it impossible to update the exception list automatically e. g. on a daily basis. Sophos engineering investigated this, this is what they found:

This is a problem with the script, not the API.
As per the documentation here: https://www.sophos.com/en-us/medialibrary/PDFs/documentation/UTMonAWS/Sophos-UTM-RESTful-API.pdf?la=en
3.6 X-Restd-Insert header
In many cases when you create a new object, the object needs to be directly inserted into a node in order to be active. This usually takes two operations; however, there is an additional header you can use when creating objects to automatically activate the objects. The header will insert a reference at the given position inside the node.
For example, if you create a “packetfilter/packetfilter” rule object and need to add the object into the “packetfilter.rules” node and make it active, you can use the “1” flag to set the rule as the first rule. If you need to add the new rule object as the last rule, you can use “-1” flag. If you need the new rule object to reside somewhere in the middle, e.g., fourth rules, you can set the flag to “4”.
X-Restd-Insert: packetfilter.rules 4
This script does not utilize the X-RESTD-INSERT header, or do a second operation to add it, and therefore does not update the reference to include this.

Hi there. Great Module. It makes things really easier.
Any Chance to include the MS IPv6-Addresses too?
