How can I use the API to get all specific devices? ie juniper / cisco / netgear / etc

Currently I am just trying to figure out how I can look for all X devices that are currently known in my network. I currently have a report that runs daily to get me the information but I would like to automate part of my daily routine. I found the SDK GIT but a lot of the scripts and examples are for management, not querying of data and getting back information like model, ip address, domain/fqdn, etc...

How did you want to query?  PowerShell, Python, Go, via the REST API?

# Build a connection to SWIS
$SwisConnection = Connect-Swis -Hostname "MyOrionServer" -Username "MyUsername" -Password "MyPassword"

# Get a list of all distinct vendors
$DistinctVendors = Get-SwisData -SwisConnection $SwisConnection -Query "SELECT DISTINCT Vendor FROM Orion.Nodes ORDER BY Vendor"
# Cycle through each vendor
ForEach ( $Vendor in $DistinctVendors ) {
   Write-Host "Getting nodes from '$Vendor'"
   Get-SwisData -SwisConnection $SwisConnection -Query "SELECT NodeID, Caption, DetalsUrl, Vendor FROM Orion.Nodes WHERE Vendor = '$Vendor'"
}

If you don't know what fields are available, then you should definitely download SWQL Studio to get a list of all fields and understand the data types.
