Can't put/move MV Cameras into our pre-existing networks

Hopefully this is not a dumb question, but according to meraki documentation we should easily be able to do what we're trying to do:

 

We have a variety of networks in our organization, most of which are "Combined" networks. We just recently purchased our first MV cameras, however the tech who set them up was unable to add them to a pre-existing network. He ended up having to created a new "Camera" network to add them to our organization and start managing them. I don't want duplicates of our networks as we roll out MV cameras, so I tried to move these cameras to the pre-existing "Combined" network to try and clean-up the dashboard, but it doesn't give me the option to move the cameras to any of our networks except for a test camera network we made as seen in the screenshot. Why can we not move the MV devices to another network?

You cant move it , it can only be assigned from the inventory the first time.

 

Maybe its easier to combine to two networks.

You can definitely move cameras from one network to another. If it was not allowing it that would be due to no destinations networks being modern combined networks with the camera sub group type.

 

In that case you'd need to update your legacy combined networks to modern combined networks following the process I cover here https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1fFjA-HCNB7KE03bUgCGINoNqVMVSumlF4Tjo-bUH9aE/edit?usp=sharing
