Enable/Configure Air Marshal through API V1

Just making sure, there is no way to configure Air Marshal through API?  I looked through - https://developer.cisco.com/meraki/api-v1/#!introduction  and there's only scan results from the air marshal.  

 

We are only using MR70s from what I gather this is a dual-radio AP and I'll have to set it as a Air Marshal mode to scan our remote locations then disable it so it can act as an AP again.  I'm hoping there's an API that can help me do this process since I need scans as part of PCI.

@ls08 you are correct, today there is only the /networks/{id}/wireless/airMarshal endpoint for listing out the most recent scanning results from Air Marshal.  I'll check if there's an FR in place (or add one) to get the ability to configure Air Marshal and/or configure those dual-radio APs to dedicated scanning mode and back off.  

 

Note that you don't necessarily have to turn them into dedicated scanners if it acceptable to have Air Marshal run opportunistically once a day without having to disrupt client connectivity.  More info in the documentation. https://documentation.meraki.com/MR/Monitoring_and_Reporting/Air_Marshal
