Access Point (AP) Migration Plan, Network Policies, and Configurations

Objective: A complete migration of all Access Point (AP) devices, security policies, network configurations, and SSIDs from the current organization (Administrative Network) to a new organization called "Connectivity" is required.

Requirement Description: The purpose of this process is to consolidate the wireless infrastructure under the new organizational structure. We are requesting the definition of the most efficient procedure for transferring assets and configurations, evaluating whether it is feasible to perform this natively or if the development of an API-based script is required to automate the mass transition.

You can split off networks into their own orgs, but you can not easily merge networks from one org into another.

Unless your setup is small and simple, the API is going to be the best way to do this.

There are Marketplace products that do this: https://www.boundlessdigital.com/product/migration/ as an example.

There is an early access API that Meraki has been developing https://developer.cisco.com/meraki/api-v1/create-network-move/ but as far as I know it's still restricted to orgs on the same shard which makes its use limited.

Lastly see here for a general overview of everything with moving: https://documentation.meraki.com/Platform_Management/Dashboard_Administration/Design_and_Configure/O...
