Meraki

I've just played around with it and it's kinda "meh". the smallest intervall with a result > 0Wh was 800 seconds (13.3 minutes). So it would be a better value for statistically reasons, but you would still miss short peaks. the thing that annoys me here is the situation, that you are getting a live value every few seconds over the dashboard, when you are looking at it in the browser. So the possibility is there. The best would be to get the value over mqtt or snmp.

Hello @Oren , it is still relevant. The "powerUsageInWh" parameter is sadly in Wh and not W over a period of 24? hours. What me and the others wanted was a live view of the current usage. e.g. a MV is using ~ 4.4-6Wh (lets say 5 for the next calculation) during the day. If it is freezing and the heater gets turned on in the night, then it would probably go to the advertised 30W. example ( I know probably not so realistic, but again it's an example): So day 8am - 10 pm -> 14 hours * 5W = 70Wh night with freezing temperatures and IR -> 10 hours * 30W = 300Wh -> total 370Wh for 24 hours usage With this you can't make any assumptions when it will use the full power and when not. If we would get the current W, then it would be possible to put it into a database and visualize it. "Okay at 10pm the power usage of the camera X went up".

Is the MT14 getting to hot after enabling this setting? I'm just curious why temperature and humidity is getting disabled here.

Just for completion. You don't have to host something. Webex is also supporting an integration for incoming webhooks to post something into a room https://apphub.webex.com/applications/incoming-webhooks-cisco-systems-38054-23307 I'm using this and the basic integrated template.

I want to get my 2nd Expert Certification 😎 and complete my house project =D (There are still 2 MV72X which are ready to be mounted)

Sadly there isn't currently an endpoint for that. You can only "lock" the device. @PhilipDAthhe wan'ts to automate the "lost mode" for IOS devices and not let meraki detect "lost devices"

ah sorry, I misunderstood you. I thought, that you mean the generateSnapshot endpoint. I had problems with dowloading the screenshots too. I've created a script to download images for a time lapse. My solution: between every generateSnapshot call there is a 0.3 second delay between generateSnapshot and downloading the image is a 5 second delay - The api request will be sent to the camera, which must decrypt and upload the image to the meraki cloud. This process might take a while.

If I remember right, then there was/is an issue with the redirect from api.meraki.com to the shard with this endpoint. Try it again with the shard url (nXXX.meraki.com) of your dashboard instead of api.meraki.com

I can only agree with @BlakeRichardson and the others here. I wasn't really active in the last months, because of a maternity leave, but the meraki team and the whole community is really nice and helpful. I know other forums from different types of markets (e.g. cars). If you dare to say something bad there, then you will get smashed by the fanboys and/or the moderators. In this community this is really different! Critics are really welcome here and the team is taking it seriously. Sometimes I even think, that a post here is getting more attention than the "Make a wish/feedback" button on the dashboard.

Not available in europe =(

Thanks, but when will this be added for full admins? It's really a pain to not have video walls, because I have more access.

Greenberet · ‎Jul 25 2022

not that I know of, but you can get the data easily via mqtt

I know what you mean and a visualization in the dashboard would be nice. But for the meantime, you don't have to go (much) into APIs for that. The sensors are supporting MQTT. You just have to put the MQTT data into a database and visualize it with grafana. I'm having different kind of vendors from the sensors and I had the others already in grafana and since MQTT support I'm having now all sensor statistics in one place

yes it is still working fine. There is a deprecation warning, which can be ignored at the moment.

the Async/DashboardAPI objects are saving the logger in the _logger member. You could just do a dashboard._logger.addHandler( my_logger_handler ) then all messages from which are sent through the logging module would be sent to your handler

I think they have changed it to a single MX67W.

Greenberet · ‎Apr 20 2022

Yes, I've just received it too 🙂

Hello, from the information that I've received so far, we should get notified in february for further informations about the cable replacement and in march the new cables should have been shipped. The last update I've received on this matter was in january. The FAQ was also updated the last time in january. Is there any update on the cable situation? thanks

Congratulations for everyone =D and thank you very much @MeredithW

Congratulations Guys =D

You can't check for the apiKey itself, but you can check for the api requests in general and check the adminId You can also filter for the adminId, so you can check when admin X has done the last admin requests. https://developer.cisco.com/meraki/api-v1/#!get-organization-api-requests

Yay finally Tier 3 =D

Greenberet · ‎Mar 29 2022

I did that already, when It came out =D

I really love the MQTT possibility here! Now I don't have to pull the dashboard to get my data. I'm just a little bit sad about the configuration of the MQTT broker. We have the MQTT settings already in the Camera network, now we have to add the same settings again in the Environment network. I think it would be better to move the MQTT settings to a network-wide configuration or even organization wide.
