Hello All, I wanted to share a method I’ve been using to successfully rotate our Public Wi-Fi password across all networks within the organization. Below is an example of JSON code combined with a Python script that can be leveraged to update the Wi-Fi password for a specific SSID across multiple networks within Meraki's dashboard. Variables to Change: Your-Organization-ID: Replace this with your Meraki organization ID. Find your organization ID Your-API-Secret-Key: Replace this with your Meraki API key. Obtaining your Meraki API key Python Script for Wi-Fi Password Rotation: import requests
