Sanity check - Create MG / MT networks

[Alisdair85]

Hello

Sanity check, is there no support in the API today to create an MG Network and assign MG devices? - same with MT it appears? Have a large rollout that needs this platform capability. It appears not, when will these be added?

Cheers

I don't know the answer.

I would create a network with an MG, and then call GetNetwork to see what device types are returned.

Once you know the name of the device type used for MG, you should be able to use it with:

or:

Hi Philp

I believe it to be /cellularGateway/ but not seeing this documented anywhere, will try and give it a try on Postman. I'm sure when the MG was first launched it was touted as an API-first build so definitely surprised it cant be spun up via the API, I could be making that up though.

This API lets you update the MG configuration itself:

Thanks we are using the other MG endpoints in the build but have a need to spin up 100s/1000s of sites in one shot with MX, MR, MS, MV, MT and MG devices in one simultaneous provisioning action
