Switch Ports Profiles API broken?

[Rolando Valenzuela]

No matter how I try, I cannot make switch port profile API to work, it always returns 404 Not Found. Has it been deprecated?

Is there another way to create port profiles via the API?

Thanks.

I'm not sure but i think that Meraki does not support switch port profiles via API anymore.

Just Organization Config Template Switch Profile Port.

Thank you for the reply, it is confusing that you can still find unsupported/deprecated API details.

The Organization Config Template Switch Profile you are referencing doesn't seem to have a create (POST) API - Maybe with the "createOrganizationConfigTemplate" ? But I cannot a way to link that into a switch profile where I define my standard configuration for VLAN X.

Port Profiles were merged into the feature called SmartPorts.

https://documentation.meraki.com/Switching/MS_-_Switches/Design_and_Configure/Configuration_Guides/Port_and_VLAN_Configuration/SmartPorts

I'm on the road today and cannot currently test, but perhaps the call you need now lives under the smart ports section? I see several smart ports calls in the API Index.

[Rolando Valenzuela]

Smart Ports took me to the same API (https://developer.cisco.com/meraki/api-v1/get-network-switch-ports-profiles/) BUT one thing I missed is that it is an Early Access API and access to those must be enabled first.

After enabling the access for the Early Access API, I got the access I needed.

Thank you Ryan.
