Solved: API for creating a new SSID

trendkill · ‎10-16-2023

I noticed we have an API to update an SSID

{{base URL}}/networks/:networkid/wireless/ssids/:number

:number , we need to specify the number of SSID in a scenario where an SSID exists.

What should be the API call if needto create a new SSID ?

That's it, there are already 15 predefined SSIDs but they are disabled, you have to add the SSID parameters you want.

I am not a Cisco employee. My suggestions are based on documentation of Meraki best practices and day-to-day experience.

Please, if this post was useful, leave your kudos and mark it as solved.

Hi ,

https://developer.cisco.com/meraki/api-v1/get-network-wireless-ssids/

Will get the current SSIDs. Like said earlier , there a maximum of 15 ssids starting from index 0 to 14.

This 'GET' will get your configured SSIDs , so I would use the next 'unconfigured SSID' ( eg : ID 2 ) if ['0','1'] are in use.

Good luck !
