Get Network Connection Stats returns null

[boomi]

Trying to use https://developer.cisco.com/meraki/api/#/rest/api-endpoints/wireless-health/get-network-connection-s...

I've tried on two different network ID's, with a few combinations:

 - No query params

 - timespan=300

 - timespan=300 + ssid=0

It always just returns null unless I botch the params. Am I missing a requirement for using this call?

Good Morning,

I tried to use the connection status using Python, and the return result.

Here is a part of the code i used. Network_Id is of course the Network ID

---------------------------------------------------

param = {}

param['timespan'] = 360

reponse = dashboard.wireless_health.getNetworkConnectionStats(network_id,**param)

print(reponse)

---------------------------------------------------

And the response it gave me is ;

{

   'assoc': 1,

   'auth': 2,

   'dhcp': 0,

   'dns': 0,

   'success': 2

}

print(dashboard.wireless_health.getNetworkConnectionStats(networkId="L_12345678987654321",timespan=432000))
print(dashboard.wireless_health.getNetworkConnectionStats(networkId="L_12345678987654321",timespan=432000, ssid=0))

This works too 😉 .

Thanks for helping me confirm!

The API apparently returns 'null' instead of zeros when there haven't been any connection attempts in the specified timespan.

Expected:

{
    "assoc": 0,
    "auth": 0,
    "dhcp": 0,
    "dns": 0,
    "success": 0
}

Actual:

null

Ah yes, it does that.

I agree that the output you expected would've been nicer.

[Edgar-VO]

Hmmm,

I have to agree on that one.... None is no value at all (in programming)

i Guess there is always room for improvement 😉

Good feedback on this endpoint. This one will need some love. Added to our ToDo list for v1.
