To make it more relatable, let's consider a scenario: Imagine a school with Wi-Fi access for students. However, teachers are unhappy to see students scrolling through their phones during [...]
I recently worked on a project where the customer was trying to track BLE asset tags using the Juniper/Mist location solution. I know that we can leverage the WebSocket API from Mist to be able to retrieve close-to-realtime location data, so I wrote a quick script before going onsite one day to test it out. [...]
In this blog post, we will see how we can make a simple API Call to the Mist cloud in order to have all APs, supporting a Wi-Fi network, broadcast their name. We usually enable this feature when we are about to do a Wi-Fi site survey. This allows us to see the AP names [...]
Modern internet browsers (such as Chrome, Safari, Firefox) are equipped with advanced developer tools. We can actually leverage some of these tools to take a look at which API calls are made behind the scene when you view or modify settings of your favourite Wi-Fi network cloud plarform. To illustrate this feature, we will make [...]
In a first video, I explain everything you need to create your first API call to the Mist system dashboard. In order to make this API call, I use an application called Postman. Postman allows you to build your API calls in a very easy way. This is useful to test the API calls, make [...]
