Wireless Health reports

I am trying to create reports and am surprised by the overall lack of reports that can be run by Meraki.  In particular I would like to be able to run weekly reports based on the information in the Wireless -> Health page.  Since I can look at the information but can't run a report on it, I assume I would need to use an API to accomplish this?  Any suggestions?  Meraki has tons of metrics on the dashboard which is great, but it's frustrating not to be able to save that information, especially since it's dropped from the Meraki cloud after only 30 days.

Hello @Lonestarr_007 ,

 

Personally, I'm a fan of summary reports since I don't like tackling with API syntax and general debugging. 

 

You can get some good insights into your wireless usage in menu Organisation -> Summary Reports.

 

As per our Monitoring the Wireless  document, 

 

"This report provides information about the Meraki wireless network since its inception, including some of the following statistics:

- Top 10 APs by data consumption and number of client logins
- Top 10 clients by data consumption
- Usage breakdown by SSID and AP model
- Top client device manufacturers and OS types by number of client logins and data consumption

 

The report can be customized and viewed for statistics over a certain time period to allow for statistical analytics for a specific day, week or month.

 

The report can be e-mailed on a configurable schedule for constant visibility. Administrators can configure one or more e-mail addresses under the 'Schedule monthly e-mails' tab if they wish to send the summary report to multiple people. They can also add their organization’s logo to the report. More information on this feature is found here."

 

The best part is the schedule feature, in my opinion. You can check more about it in the Summary Reports document.

 

But I understand you're more focused on Wireless -> Health page info. You wouldn't find that kind of info in the Summary Reports page.

 

So the way to move ahead would be via API calls like you asked.

 

This API reference has syntax details about client health , Devices health and General health scores.

 

I hope this answers your question.
