i tried that and was not successful. Thank you for your recommendation, i wound up going in a different direction. this has worked well for me so far: import csv import meraki import os import time def create_vlan_with_retries(dashboard, network_id, vlan_id, vlan_name, subnet, appliance_ip, ipv6_enabled, mandatory_dhcp_enabled, max_retries, retry_delay😞 attempt = 0 while attempt < max_retries: try: dashboard.appliance.createNetworkApplianceVlan( network_id, vlan_id, name=vlan_name, subnet=subnet, applianceIp=appliance_ip, ipv6={'enabled': ipv6_enabled}, mandatoryDhcp={'enabled': mandatory_dhcp_enabled} ) print(f"VLAN {vlan_id} ('{vlan_name}') created successfully for network {network_id}.") return except Exception as e: print(f"Attempt {attempt + 1} for VLAN {vlan_id} ('{vlan_name}') failed with error: {e}") time.sleep(retry_delay) attempt += 1 print(f"Max retries reached for VLAN {vlan_id} ('{vlan_name}').") # Replace this with your Meraki API key API_KEY = os.environ.get('X-Cisco-Meraki-API-Key') dashboard = meraki.DashboardAPI(API_KEY,caller='UserAgentTAG') # Get the organization ID org_id = 'OrgID' max_retries = 5 retry_delay = 5 # Get the networks in the organization networks = dashboard.organizations.getOrganizationNetworks(org_id, tags='Unique_ID_TAG') #loop through networks for network in networks: network_id = network['id'] # copy the desired configuration from the *PUT Tab* Consolidated VLAN Config.xlsx file and past in line 46 below # Create VLAN with ID '21' create_vlan_with_retries( dashboard, network_id, '21', 'Access Control', subnet='10.10.30.0/26', appliance_ip='10.10.30.1', ipv6_enabled=False, mandatory_dhcp_enabled=False, max_retries=max_retries, retry_delay=retry_delay )

can anyone assist with the addition of rate limiting and re-tries so i can get some "fault tolerance" in my scripting. here is the script i am using in Visual Studio to update / create VLANs, i keep getting kicked out due to 429 - too many requests, due to other applications and services also running API calls and scripts. it may be successful for the first 1-3 vlans but gets kicked out as failure for the rest. import csv import meraki import os # Replace this with your Meraki API key API_KEY = os.environ.get('X-Cisco-Meraki-API-Key') dashboard = meraki.DashboardAPI(API_KEY,caller='callerTAG') # Get the organization ID org_id = 'ORG#' # Get the networks in the organization networks = dashboard.organizations.getOrganizationNetworks(org_id, tags='ADD Unique Identifier') #copy the commands from the Consolidated VLAN Config.xlsx document and past in the next line (23) #Residential Networks #loop through networks for network in networks: network_id = network['id'] id_21 = '21' id_22 = '22' id_41 = '41' id_42 = '42' id_47 = '47' id_48 = '48' id_61 = '61' id_111 = '111' id_333 = '333' try: PutNewVLAN= dashboard.appliance.createNetworkApplianceVlan( network_id, id_21, name='Access Control', subnet='10.10.10.0/26', applianceIp='10.10.10.1', cidr='10.10.10.0/26', mask=28, ipv6={'enabled': False}, mandatoryDhcp={'enabled': False} ) except Exception as e: print(e) continue try: PutNewVLAN= dashboard.appliance.createNetworkApplianceVlan( network_id, id_22, name='Critical Devices', subnet='10.10.10.64/26', applianceIp='10.10.10.65', cidr='10.10.10.64/26', mask=28, ipv6={'enabled': False}, mandatoryDhcp={'enabled': False} ) except Exception as e: print(e) continue try: PutNewVLAN= dashboard.appliance.createNetworkApplianceVlan( network_id, id_41, name='Limited Access', subnet='10.10.10.128/26', applianceIp='10.10.10.129', cidr='10.10.10.128/26', mask=28, ipv6={'enabled': False}, mandatoryDhcp={'enabled': False} ) except Exception as e: print(e) continue try: PutNewVLAN= dashboard.appliance.createNetworkApplianceVlan( network_id, id_42, name='Public Accessible', subnet='10.10.10.192/26', applianceIp='10.10.10.193', cidr='10.10.10.192/26', mask=28, ipv6={'enabled': False}, mandatoryDhcp={'enabled': False} ) except Exception as e: print(e) continue try: PutNewVLAN= dashboard.appliance.createNetworkApplianceVlan( network_id, id_47, name='Time Clock', subnet='10.10.11.96/29', applianceIp='10.10.11.97', cidr='10.10.11.96/29', mask=28, ipv6={'enabled': False}, mandatoryDhcp={'enabled': False} ) except Exception as e: print(e) continue try: PutNewVLAN= dashboard.appliance.createNetworkApplianceVlan( network_id, id_48, name='Public Printer', subnet='10.10.11.104/29', applianceIp='10.10.11.105', cidr='10.10.11.104/29', mask=28, ipv6={'enabled': False}, mandatoryDhcp={'enabled': False} ) except Exception as e: print(e) continue try: PutNewVLAN= dashboard.appliance.createNetworkApplianceVlan( network_id, id_61, name='NVR DVR', subnet='10.10.11.112/28', applianceIp='10.10.11.113', cidr='10.10.11.112/28', mask=28, ipv6={'enabled': False}, mandatoryDhcp={'enabled': False} ) except Exception as e: print(e) continue try: PutNewVLAN= dashboard.appliance.createNetworkApplianceVlan( network_id, id_111, name='Public DIA', subnet='172.16.0.0/21', applianceIp='172.16.0.1', cidr='172.16.0.0/21', mask=28, ipv6={'enabled': False}, mandatoryDhcp={'enabled': False} ) except Exception as e: print(e) continue try: PutNewVLAN= dashboard.appliance.createNetworkApplianceVlan( network_id, id_333, name='Management', subnet='10.110.13.0/25', applianceIp='10.110.13.1', cidr='10.110.13.0/25', mask=28, ipv6={'enabled': False}, mandatoryDhcp={'enabled': False} ) except Exception as e: print(e) continue print(networkvlans)
