Hi, Is there some documentation available about how these custom credential types should be created and what different configuration options are available? Would be nice to have some documentation available where would be some instructions about different configuration possibilities available. For example what different type of fields I can create with this JSON configuration or how to configure regex validation for this specific field etc. Is there some documentation about this available or would it be possible to create one?

We are pleased to announce that the Cisco: Meraki API v115.1 Py3 PowerPack has been released. The download for this release can be found on the Support Portal under the PowerPack filename: https://support.sciencelogic.com/s/release-version/aBu0z000000XZRPCA4/cisco-meraki-api Enhancements and Issues Addressed The following enhancements and addressed issues are included in this release: Added a universal credential and guided discovery workflow to the PowerPack. The universal credential includes configuration options for SSL certificate verification, proxy configuration, and selective discovery. For more information on configuring a Cisco Meraki universal credential, see the "Creating a Universal Credential for Cisco Meraki" section in the Cisco: Meraki [API] PowerPack manual. Added support for SSL certificate verification to the SOAP/XML and universal credential types. Added support for selective API endpoint collection to the SOAP/XML credential type, which allows you to define specific API endpoints to exclude from collection. For more information on configuring selective API endpoint collection, see the "Creating a SOAP/XML Credential for Cisco Meraki" section in the Cisco: Meraki [API] PowerPack manual. Added new fields to the universal credential type to enable retry override capability: Maximum number of retries Time between retries NOTE: These credential headers and fields should only be changed for troubleshooting purposes. Changing these values can cause collections to take longer to run, which could result in missing data or early termination (sigterm). Updated the names of the example credentials in the PowerPack to the following: Cisco: Meraki - API Basic Example Cisco: Meraki - API Example (Selective) Cisco: Meraki - API Proxy Example Cisco: Meraki - API Example Removed the "Discovery" collection object from the "Cisco: Meraki Organization Discovery [API]" Dynamic Application. Added the new "Cisco: Meraki Wireless Stats [API]" Dynamic Application, which allows you to collect information for wireless Cisco Meraki devices. NOTE: This Dynamic Application is disabled by default, and must be manually aligned to Cisco Meraki devices. For information about configuring the "Cisco: Meraki Wireless Stats [API]" Dynamic Application, see the Cisco: Meraki [API] manual. Added the new "Cisco: Meraki AP Utilization Performance [API]" Dynamic Application, which you can use to collect information on wireless access point (WAP) type devices. NOTE: This Dynamic Application is disabled by default. For information about configuring the "Cisco: Meraki AP Utilization Performance [API]" Dynamic Application, see the Cisco: Meraki [API] manual. Updated the "Cisco: Meraki Device Discovery [API]" Dynamic Application so that a device's MAC address is assigned as the device name instead of its serial number when no name is assigned. If you want to update the name of the device manually, you must disable the "Preserve Hostname" option on the device. Updated the alert formulas for both alerts in the "Cisco: Meraki Uplink Status [API]" Dynamic Application so that alerts and events are only generated when the status changes from "Active/Ready" to "Disabled/Not Connected". Updated the "Cisco: Meraki Uplink Performance [API]" Dynamic Application to index data by destination IP, which addresses issues with multiple IP configurations in Cisco Meraki. As part of the updates, the alert names for the "Cisco: Meraki Uplink Performance [API]" have been updated to reflect accurate conditions and include the specific IP. Added three new collection objects to the "Cisco: Meraki Request Manager [API]" Dynamic Application to display information on skipped endpoints. Added the new "Cisco: Meraki [API] Py3" Execution Environment, which is compatible with Python 3. NOTE: ScienceLogic recommends removing the "Cisco: Meraki [API]" execution environment after upgrading to version 115 of the PowerPack. Added logging for the "Cisco: Meraki Org Write [API]" run book action policy and included the run book action status in the "Event Log Action" entry for the run book action policy. Addressed an issue with the "Cisco: Meraki Uplink Usage Performance [API]" Dynamic Application that caused incorrect percentages to display for the "Uplink - Download Utilization Percent" and "Uplink - Upload Utilization Percent" presentation objects. (Case: 00428304) Version 115 of the "Cisco: Meraki [API]" PowerPack contained a new API call, "Network Toplogy LinkLayer" that resulted in excessive request volume. As of version 115.1, the "Network Topology LinkLayer" API call is disabled by default. (Case: 005351511) Please refer to the Cisco: Meraki API v115.1 Py3 PowerPack File Details in the PowerPacks section of the Support Portal for all information pertaining to the Cisco: Meraki API v115.1 Py3 PowerPack Support Status, Minimum SL1 Version, Solution Information, and Pricing Information. The Cisco: Meraki API v115.1 Py3 PowerPack Release File Details also contains links to the Release Notes, Manual, and PowerPack Info Report. Issues Addressed in the Cisco: Meraki API v115.1 Py3 PowerPack Release can be found in the Release Notes
