Hello,
For purposes of developing API scripts and individuals learning to use the API, it would be a great piece of mind if we could do these things in an environment with no possibility of an accident effecting a live system.
Ideally, a separate test organisation would be best however it seems a network doesn't "unlock" certain device related settings until you add a device to the network.
For example you cant edit wifi settings until you add at least one MR unit.
Is there a way to allow all settings to be available without any equipment?
thanks,
Solved! Go to solution.
You could create a new user and give them admin access to only specific network(s), then use that user's API key.
Why don't you configure a test network and add a device to it to do the tests?
because if the api script is written wrong, it could mix up network id's and apply changes to a completely different network.

ah good idea, I think this is what Ill have to do cheers 🙂
You can use a sandbox:

You can also probably get access to a test sandbox in dcloud.

oh these are cool, didnt know this existed. Unfortunately I couldn't find anything related to meraki api but still good for other stuff.
