Impacted clients and failure type

[yaakov-netop]

In Assurance > Overview there is a section of the clients. When I choose the Wireless, and then select one of Association, Authentication or IP address, I can see the Impacted clients and their Failure type.

(more details on this page is here: https://documentation.meraki.com/General_Administration/Cross-Platform_Content/Meraki_Assurance_Over...)

What is the API that can give me the Impacted clients and their Failure type?

Thanks!

I'd think you would need to use a series of calls, for instance...

get list of networks in org

iterate over list of networks with...

https://developer.cisco.com/meraki/api-v1/get-network-wireless-clients-health-scores/ 

...to get clients, there could be a LOT

select the ones with a imperfect score, and iterate over that list with...

https://developer.cisco.com/meraki/api-v1/get-network-wireless-client-connectivity-events/

@sungod What if there is an issue in the network, and because of that, all the APs in the network have bad score? 

We have a rate limit of 10 requests per second per organization, so it will take a lot of time to achieve this data.

Is there an API to get the summary of the top issues like this?

(not per client, but per network or organization)

Best is to read through the API documentation, there are several endpoints for this sort of info, I use getNetworkWirelessDevicesConnectionStats to get network wide details, and use that to determine the different failure types to present in summary form.

In the instance you mention of a network-wide issue, that is something you would need to detect and manage - one AP showing issue == it's the AP, all APs showing the issue == it's the network/other necessary service like DNS, RADIUS etc.

If you use the Meraki Python library async I/O calls, you can speed things up a lot, even with hundreds of sites and thousands of APs you can gather the data pretty fast using the call I mentioned.
