404 ClientError: Not Found for url: https://api.meraki.com/api/v1/networks/net_id/devices/seria_num

Hello I've been programming a Python script that pings every 5 seconds from an MX interface to an IP address on a remote network I know via a third-party VPN.

However, I'm getting a 404 error stating that the URL doesn't exist. Within the script, I save and print the variables that obtain the Network ID where the device is located, the MX Serial Number, and the network name.

Therefore, comparing these values used to construct the URL to which I'm sending the request, as well as printing it, I don't see any errors indicating that it can't find the network.

I've been using for the construction of the URL:

https://api.meraki.com/api/v1/networks/{network_id}/devices/{serial}/liveTools/ping
https://api.meraki.com/api/v1/networks/{network_id}/devices/{serial}/live/tools/ping

and none of these works...

I don't know if it's even an API or my Organization issue.

I created the API Key as a Full Admin within that Organization, and I tried different API Keys, deleting and generating new ones, but nothing worked.

The URL does not look right. Did you find it in our API documentation?

I'd try createDeviceLiveToolsPing
