How to view sample REST API requests?

Question

We are trying to edit a device thru the api (name, group…) and we are not able to do it. What is the correct end point and body content to do that?

Answer 1

You can very easily view sample API requests.

1. Open the web panel in Chrome, select ... - More Tools - Developer Tools

Select the "Network" tab.

2. Perform the action (in your case, add the device), and find the API request in the developer console.

You must see the request method and body in the "Headers" subpanel, and the response can be viewed in the "Response" subpanel.
