You say you have organizational-level access, but is it read-only or full access?

If it's read-only, you'll be able to perform a get, but something that requires modification won't be possible.

That API is only for systems manager. Is that what you are moving?

@mloraditch Hi there, I am trying to move device licenses from one organization to other. I have Organization wide full access for both. The link you shared is giving only seats. but here i am trying to move licenses for one device model including number of seats.

@Abhishek_1988 is your destination Org configured as Co-term? I Don't believe you will be able to move co-term licences to a PDL Org without converting it to Co-term first.

You may need to have created the destination Org with Co-term licencing using this endpoint
https://developer.cisco.com/meraki/api-v1/create-organization/

If the destination Org already exists, but is in PDL licence you may need TAC to convert to co-term for you first before moving the licences across

Once a customer converts to per-device licensing, they cannot convert back to co-termination licensing model.
