Found an old blog post.

This seems rather undocumented in the /doc links, but this will get me some of the information.

/api/monitoring/device/components/version

Interestingly enough when calling the above uri leaving off the trailing version, no version information is returned but a host of other information is preset. Seems like a "bug" / oversight.

Hi there,

The API URL you are looking for is:

/api/monitoring/device/components/version

... if all else fails you can always use /api/cli and send a list of commands and regex the returned response list.

cheers,

Seb.
