cableTestFromSwitch

POST
/api/v1/sites/{site_id}/devices/{device_id}/cable_test

TDR can be performed from the Switch. The output will be available through websocket. As there can be multiple commands issued against the same Switch at the same time and the output all goes through the same websocket stream, session is introduced for demux.

Subscribe to Device Command outputs

WS /api-ws/v1/stream

Notes:

  • An API token generated for a specific admin has the same privileges as that admin
  • An API token is automatically removed if it is not used for more than 90 days
  • SSO admins cannot generate admin API tokens. Use organization API tokens when scoped Org/Site privileges are needed.
