I meant, do you or anyone else know how to:   "Add a second field id_str"   or "Pull the id out with a regex"   I asked in that separate thread, so I'll see what they say. Thanks! ... View more

@BrianC    Apologies for the dumb question, but how would I be able to implement the second field "id_str" ?  Should I add it as a variable? Should I add it somewhere else?   total new guy at Postman and running into this rounding issue. ... View more

Yep! It's totally related to that.    Do you know what the other poster means by:   You could add a second field id_str, which would avoid a breaking change.   At the moment I'm pulling the id out with a regex, which has got me going for now.     ?? I'm pretty new to this whole Postman thing, but Meraki seems to have some agreement with them so their documentation is some of the best. ... View more

That's the thing, I'm not doing any fancy stuff either, just using Postman and Runner then trying to insert variables from a csv. One of those variables being the OrgID   :(   I also found that post too, but it requires posting 3rd party code into Postman as a global variable. I did it on a test machine, and still couldn't get it to work. I'm sure the translation doesn't help.   Thanks for the reply.     ... View more

Meraki API and Postman - large integer issue

I started learning Postman to try and automate tasks through the Meraki API. I kept running into an issue where postman would round my large numbers. Unfortunately, the ORG IDs were large numbers so all of my commands would fail. Some google-fu showed me that PostMan calls this a limitation of JS and don't plan on implementing a fix.   Has anyone else found a workaround or fix for this?   I moved to automating via powershell, but I loved the GUI of Postman coming from a complete newbie.    Thanks for your input.  ...
