Error with API call getOrganizationApplianceTrafficShapingVpnExclusionsByNetwork

[uvega]

Hello,

I am having some serious trouble getting the vpn exclusion rules for a single network or few in my organization.

I keep getting the error networkIds must be an array and I have tried any suggestion I have found to fix with no better results.

I am regularly using v1 and postman API v1.58, your help would be appreciated.

See example below:

$headers = New-Object "System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary[[String],[String]]"

$headers.Add("Accept", "application/json")

$headers.Add("Authorization", "••••••")

$response = Invoke-RestMethod 'https://api.meraki.com/api/v1/organizations/0198272/appliance/trafficShaping/vpnExclusions/byNetwork?networkIds=['L_00011222', 'L_00011222'] ' -Method 'GET' -Headers $headers

$response | ConvertTo-Json

Arrays in REST calls have an annoying syntax. Did you try this?

Hello, thank you. that worked perfectly. here is the code that worked for me for reference

# Set up headers correctly for Meraki API authentication
$headers = New-Object "System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary[[String],[String]]"
$headers.Add("Content-Type", "application/json")
$headers.Add("Accept", "application/json")
$headers.Add("X-Cisco-Meraki-API-Key", "YOURAPIKEY") # Replace with actual API key

# Define the API URL with proper query parameters
$networkId = "L_XXXX"
$organizationId = "XXXXXX"
$apiUrl = "https://api.meraki.com/api/v1/organizations/$organizationId/appliance/trafficShaping/vpnExclusions/byNetwork?networkIds[]=$networkId"

# Make the GET request
try {
$response = Invoke-RestMethod -Uri $apiUrl -Method 'GET' -Headers $headers
$response | ConvertTo-Json -Depth 3 # Convert response to JSON format for readability
} catch {
Write-Host "Error occurred: $_"
}

networkIds[]=xxxxxxxxx should be the parameter
