Awesome, keep up the good work!

[PhilipDAth]

Phew.  So what are you going to release tomorrow?

[webfrank]

Hi, I noticed that Wireless Health API does not work if network is of type combined but is ok if network is of type wireless.

Any chance to use this API also on combined network?

[G_ControlScan]

Thanks for the updates, many useful new options.  Keep bringing them.

[CharlieBailey]

Is API support for any of the Layer 7 rules or Forwarding Rules on the roadmap?

[DexterLaBora]

Yes! The port forwarding rules were just released. 

See the new updates here:

[Nash]

The port forwarding endpoint is so good. Saved me quite a bit of time this morning.

I'm really interested in being able to manage L7 rules via API though. I know it's been on the roadmap for a while, from what a Meraki SE told me last summer. We had a large project we had to pass on because the L7 rules aren't in the API yet...

I get a 404 error when trying to pull syslog info using

List the syslog servers for a network

• GET /networks/[networkId]/syslogServers

Is there something missing in documentation?

[DexterLaBora]

Should be working, just tested. Maybe share your script snippet without key?

curl -X GET \
https://api.meraki.com/api/v0/networks/L_1234567890/syslogServers \
-H 'X-Cisco-Meraki-API-Key: <APIKEY>'

[
    {
        "host": "1.2.3.4",
        "port": "443",
        "roles": [
            "URLs",
            "Wireless event log"
        ]
    }
]

Thanks for the reply! I'm using Powershell and I modified your call and it worked.

I'm using a Powershell Module that was created by someone on this board. I don't remember who that is, my apologies for not attributing. This module didn't have the syslog call in a cmdlet so I added it.

function Get-MerakiSyslog {
param (
[Parameter(Mandatory = $true)]
[ValidateNotNullOrEmpty()]
[String]
$api_key,

[Parameter(Mandatory = $true)]
[ValidateNotNullOrEmpty()]
# [String]
$networkId
)
$api = @{
"endpoint" = 'https://api.meraki.com/api/v0'
}

$header = @{
"X-Cisco-Meraki-API-Key" = $api_key
"Content-Type" = 'application/json'
}

$api.url = '/networks/$networkId/syslogServers'
$uri = $api.endpoint + $api.url
[Net.ServicePointManager]::SecurityProtocol = [Net.SecurityProtocolType]::Tls12
$request = Invoke-RestMethod -Method GET -Uri $uri -Headers $header
return $request

} Export-ModuleMember -Function Get-MerakiSyslog

I then call the cmdlet like so:

Get-MerakiSyslog -api_key "**********" -networkID "N_660903245316689202"

This returns a 404.

[mgclark]

I should also mention that I commented out [String] to make sure Powershell wasn't changing the networkId in any way. So its been tried with and without the commented line.

[Parameter(Mandatory = $true)]
[ValidateNotNullOrEmpty()]
# [String]
$networkId

[mgclark]

Nevermind. I had single quotes where I needed double quotes.

Carry on. Nothing to see here..... lol
