Error on api v1 for /networks/:networkId/sm/devices?fields={{fields}}

Mins — Tue, 08 Sep 2020 12:01:28 GMT

Hi ,

I was trying to add additional fields to return for SM Devices.

eg: /networks/:networkId/sm/devices?fields=systemType,deviceCapacity

But I am finding this error

{

"errors": [

"'fields' must be an array"

]

}

The same is working for api v0.

Any thoughts.?

Have you got it formatted as an array?

I've noticed this as well, particularly as a v0 to v1 problem.

The documentation for v0 actually states to use a comma-separated string for fields, which works for v0.

This works (v0):

https://api.meraki.com/api/v0/networks/{{networkId}}/sm/devices?fields=id,name,lastUser,ownerEmail,ownerUsername

These do not (v1):

https://api.meraki.com/api/v1/networks/{{networkId}}/sm/devices?fields=id,name,lastUser,ownerEmail,ownerUsername

https://api.meraki.com/api/v1/networks/{{networkId}}/sm/devices?fields=[id,name,lastUser,ownerEmail,ownerUsername]

https://api.meraki.com/api/v1/networks/{{networkId}}/sm/devices?fields=['id','name','lastUser','ownerEmail','ownerUsername']

/networks/:networkId/sm/devices?fields[]={{fields}}

I was trying some error and trial and the above worked for me.

The following API call on version 1 should allow this to work for anyone who is curious:

{{baseUrl}}/networks/:networkId/sm/devices?fields[]=id,name
