Hi, I am new to Meraki and to the Dashboard API. I am trying to ascertain whether I am using the Dashboard API correctly or not. I need to get the status of all access points and switches in an organization. Currently this is how I approach it: Request status for every device in the organization (API: https://api.meraki.com/api/v0/organizations/***/deviceStatuses). Iterate over each device and request additional device details (https://api.meraki.com/api/v0/networks/***/devices/***). Iterate over the device details, using the device's model name to group the devices into groups eg. all devices with a model name starting with "MR" belongs to the Access Point group, all devices starting with "MS" belongs to the switches group and so on. I have two questions to the above approach: Is there a better way than getting all the devices via the deviceStatuses endpoint and then requesting each device's details? It results in a lot of requests and I am concerned that I will quickly reach the API's max request limit - 5 calls pr second. Is there a better way to identify a device type (eg access point, switch etc) other than looking at the device's model name? Regards, Bjørn
