hi @sebas We dont have any acl's on our switchports here as only used for Meraki Ap's. With my quick testing of the Update port API it was throwing error's. So doing some testing of the different parameters I saw that having the following in macWhitelist stickyMacWhitelist stickyMacWhitelistLimit Caused these errors so i just stripped the entries out as wasn't required. Not really looking into why these were causing a error. More than likely a formatting thing. I don't need to use it at the moment so wasn't really worried about it yet 😄

@sebas Sorry not in the office today so not been at my machine quick dirty way to solve your issue would to do this it's how your defining your parameters where it's causing the issue would have to look into (google) how you can set the value there as a true null. $body = @{ "name" = $name "tags" = $tags "enabled" = $enabled "type" = $type "vlan" = $vlan "voiceVlan" = $null "allowedVlans" = $allowedVlans "poeEnabled" = $poeEnabled "isolationEnabled" = $isolationEnabled "rstpEnabled" = $rstpEnabled "stpGuard" = $stpGuard #"accessPolicyNumber" = $accessPolicyNumber "linkNegotiation" = $linkNegotiation #"portScheduleId" = $portScheduleId "udld" = $udld #"macWhitelist" = $macWhitelist #"stickyMacWhitelist" = $stickyMacWhitelist #"stickyMacWhitelistLimit" = $stickyMacWhitelistLimit } | ConvertTo-Json

Hi @sebas I Use powershell and working in powershell. You can call the variable $null but what's important is the format and information it contains. The info in your output json is the most important part and should look like my example.

@CBurkhead no problems we are all here to help. I've not done anything in python so can't say how painful that is. I just know being reliant on others doesn't always work in your own situations so best to break it down and build to suit your needs.

Hey @CBurkhead Have you got it sorted and working now? I do alot of testing with a test network to make sure the api only touches what I want it to had a few that would have caused problems. Can say always test before rollout I remember alerts being a strange one where everything has to be assigned correctly couldn't leave out of the call or would implement strange behaviour.

@sebas are you able to provide how your json looks which is being sent in the script $body = @{
"name" = $name
"tags" = $tags
"enabled" = $enabled
"type" = $type
"vlan" = $vlan
"voiceVlan" = $voiceVlan
"allowedVlans" = $allowedVlans
"poeEnabled" = $poeEnabled
"isolationEnabled" = $isolationEnabled
"rstpEnabled" = $rstpEnabled
"stpGuard" = $stpGuard
#"accessPolicyNumber" = $accessPolicyNumber
"linkNegotiation" = $linkNegotiation
#"portScheduleId" = $portScheduleId
"udld" = $udld
#"macWhitelist" = $macWhitelist
#"stickyMacWhitelist" = $stickyMacWhitelist
"stickyMacWhitelistLimit" = $stickyMacWhitelistLimit
} | ConvertTo-Json this is how mine looks when sent to api.meraki and works fine { "name":"test voice Vlan Update", "tags":null, "enabled":true, "poeEnabled":true, "type":"access", "vlan":10, "voiceVlan":null, "allowedVlans": "all", "isolationEnabled": false, "rstpEnabled": true, "stpGuard": "BPDU guard", "accessPolicyNumber": null, "linkNegotiation": "Auto negotiate", "portScheduleId": null, "udld": "Alert only" }

Hey I know it doesn't use the voice vlan info. What i'm saying is I can even remove the value in that scenario. My 1st test was an access port with voice vlan removing.

Hi @CBurkhead what does your changelog say against your change. Here is my call which is removing a the voice valn when it's populated then changed to a Trunk port. Old Value {"number":5,"name":"test voice Vlan Update","tags":null,"enabled":true,"poeEnabled":true,"type":"trunk","vlan":1,"voiceVlan":20,"allowedVlans":"all","isolationEnabled":false,"rstpEnabled":true,"stpGuard":"bpdu guard","accessPolicyNumber":null,"linkNegotiation":"Auto negotiate","portScheduleId":null,"udld":"Alert only","macWhitelist":null,"stickyMacWhitelist":null,"stickyMacWhitelistLimit":null} New Value {"number":5,"name":"test voice Vlan Update","tags":null,"enabled":true,"poeEnabled":true,"type":"trunk","vlan":10,"voiceVlan":null,"allowedVlans":"all","isolationEnabled":false,"rstpEnabled":true,"stpGuard":"bpdu guard","accessPolicyNumber":null,"linkNegotiation":"Auto negotiate","portScheduleId":null,"udld":"Alert only","macWhitelist":null,"stickyMacWhitelist":null,"stickyMacWhitelistLimit":null}

Hello @Meraki_Dave Meraki_Dave what details for the port are you defining to update on the port. I'm noticing a problem with the following parameters you should be able to remove these if not required and the script should run. macWhitelist stickyMacWhitelist stickyMacWhitelistLimit

Hey @sebas , I've been taking a quick look at this this morning can you do me a favour and try and #"stickyMacWhitelistLimit" to remove this parameter as well and try and run. I have tested the following and it is working to remove the value in voice Vlan $jsonbodyUpPort = ' { "name":"test voice Vlan Update", "tags":null, "enabled":true, "poeEnabled":true, "type":"access", "vlan":10, "voiceVlan":null, "allowedVlans": "all", "isolationEnabled": false, "rstpEnabled": true, "stpGuard": "BPDU guard", "accessPolicyNumber": null, "linkNegotiation": "Auto negotiate", "portScheduleId": null, "udld": "Alert only" } '

Hey @LauraZ glad it helped if your working against 1 organisation it's fine replacing the url, but If you have multiple orgs then this causes more issues. So I find it easier to use the base url and script a redirect so you can handle all orgs you might look after. Good luck with your scripting.

I can confirm this does work utilising the method from @jdsilva I have created a script in powershell that does this but as stated it takes a long time to process.. Which is possibly the way my script is written but it works for searching for mac's at least. I search org > network > device then search for clients on the security appliance. We do have 350 sites to search through. You can take that as a basis on whether it is worth setting up. It has allowed us to find some user's who were serial bandwidth hogs and locate which sites they had been to.

Hey 5ghz, Is it the same details against every network you use. I'm not a native programmer either but like tinkering happy to snap something together that will allow you to do your updates. quick one just to show how to get all your networks against all your orgs These utilise GET commands so only reading data not writing. #### make sure powershell runs script as tls1.2 [Net.ServicePointManager]::SecurityProtocol = [Net.SecurityProtocolType]::Tls12 $apikey = "ENTER YOUR API KEY IN HERE" $header = @{ "X-Cisco-Meraki-API-Key" = $apikey "Content-Type" = 'application/json' } ## Define the tables for storing devices used later ## $networklist_all = @() $resourceOrgs = "https://api.meraki.com/api/v0/organizations" $resultOrgs = Invoke-RestMethod -Uri $resourceOrgs -Method GET -Header $header ForEach ($Org_Meraki in $resultOrgs) { $FindOrgid = $Org_Meraki.id $FindOrgName = $Org_Meraki.name $GetNetworks = "https://api.meraki.com/api/v0/organizations/$FindOrgid/networks/" Try { $resultGetNetworks = Invoke-RestMethod -Uri $GetNetworks -Method GET -Headers $header } catch [System.Net.WebException] { $Request = $_.Exception Write-Warning "No Networks In This Organisation '$FindOrgName'" Continue } $resultGetNetworksSorted = $resultGetNetworks | Sort-Object name ForEach ($Network_Meraki in $resultGetNetworksSorted) { $Selected_network = New-Object psobject $Selected_network | Add-Member -MemberType NoteProperty -Name id -Value $Network_Meraki.id $Selected_network | Add-Member -MemberType NoteProperty -Name name -Value $Network_Meraki.name $Selected_network | Add-Member -MemberType NoteProperty -Name timeZone -Value $Network_Meraki.timeZone $Selected_network | Add-Member -MemberType NoteProperty -Name tags -Value $Network_Meraki.tags $Selected_network | Add-Member -MemberType NoteProperty -Name type -Value $Network_Meraki.type $Selected_network | Add-Member -MemberType NoteProperty -Name disableMyMerakiCom -Value $Network_Meraki.disableMyMerakiCom $Selected_network | Add-Member -MemberType NoteProperty -Name disableRemoteStatusPage -Value $Network_Meraki.disableRemoteStatusPage $Selected_network | Add-Member -MemberType NoteProperty -Name OrgName -Value $FindOrgName $networklist_all+=$Selected_network } } $networklist_all

Hi 5ghz, I don't think postman allow for multiple queries at the same time so your going to have to look at some programing language to achieve this. I perform it using windows powershell as it was available on my works machine and not locked down from use or needing any other software installing. My loops are ForEach statements to look at each org/network/device in an array. get orgs > foreach org > get network > foreach network > get devices (or what ever information you are after) Are your snmp settings going to be the same against all your networks or is there individual credentials for them. Also is this going to be published to every network you can see or only certain ones. As you could tackle them slightly different depending on that. Depending if you have to filter on certain sites and or have different information to publish to that list.

Hey DaveRey, are these devices in one network or across multiple networks? If multiple networks you should build a array of all your devices in there. This can be exported to a csv or file for editing. I have a script that loops through each site in the org and pull back devices for each. I then use that to list of all devices in our org rather than the /organizations/{organizationId}/devices which has the startingAfter parameters.

Is this the 1st api call you have utilised? it might be worth using postman for a simple GET response https ://api.meraki.com/api/v0/organizations Is the org you are trying to add the ssid to listed on this GET if yes move down to networks of the org https ://api.meraki.com/api/v0/organizations/{organizationId}/networks I've always found working at the top level then working down to be the best way to find out where the problem is in scripts.

Hi, the system works I haven't had a problem with that. It's how to format a response which is a alertType Settings changed. The structure of these responses which have caused issues as can't figure out a way to get these to display nicely. for example multiple port changes here is the information received in flow which Meraki generates. The following id for a field switchPort138034122919267. You need this to get label, old / new text. Can't figure out how to read this value to then use the value to get the information contained within it. { "alertData": { "name": "Switch ports", "url": "/manage/configure/switchports", "changes": { "switchPort138034122919267": { "label": "Secondary Outer Switch - SSOC-CFT-PoC / 7", "oldText": { "port": [ "enabled" ] }, "newText": { "port": [ "disabled" ] }, "changedBy": "Mark Davis ()", "ssidId": null }, "switchPort138034122919268": { "label": "Secondary Outer Switch - SSOC-CFT-PoC / 8", "oldText": { "port": [ "enabled" ] }, "newText": { "port": [ "disabled" ] }, "changedBy": "Mark Davis ()", "ssidId": null }, "switchPort138034122919269": { "label": "Secondary Outer Switch - SSOC-CFT-PoC / 9", "oldText": { "port": [ "enabled" ] }, "newText": { "port": [ "disabled" ] }, "changedBy": "Mark Davis ()", "ssidId": null } }, "userId": xxxxxx }, "alertId": "695806142430688260", "alertType": "Settings changed", "occurredAt": "2019-01-25T14:31:05.361531Z", "sentAt": "2019-01-25T14:41:07.378277Z" }
