Orion Integration Questions

KMstats

We were looking into a few different products to integrate into our environment and we were wondering if Orion supports the following:

1. Non conventional connections (ie. Meraki hardware)
2. General Meraki integration (API)
   1. I've seen that Orion can pull in Meraki AP information, but I haven't seen anything about the other Meraki products
3. WiFi integration (similar to Cisco Prime)

The Meraki API is a bit hit and miss i have found, so what we have setup is that we poll for the status of th device using SNMP v3.  For some other details we run a small ptython script to pull information like,

MAC Address, Serial Number, Device Name, Model, Network ID, License Expiration Date, Tags, Order Number, Product Type

This gets sorted in to a CSV File which I then use to import the inforamtion I want to store into Custom Fields.

This is the Code:

import csv
from itertools import product
import meraki

# Defining your API key as a variable in source code is not recommended
API_KEY = 'VerylongString'
# Instead, use an environment variable as shown under the Usage section
# @ https://github.com/meraki/dashboard-api-python/

dashboard = meraki.DashboardAPI(API_KEY)

organization_id = '########'

response = dashboard.organizations.getOrganizationInventoryDevices(
organization_id, productTypes='appliance'
)

fieldnames = ['mac', 'serial', 'name', 'model', 'networkId','licenseExpirationDate', 'tags', 'orderNumber', 'productType', 'claimedAt']
rows = (response)

with open('Meraki-Appliance-Devices.csv', 'w', encoding='UTF8', newline='') as f:
writer = csv.DictWriter(f, fieldnames=fieldnames)
writer.writeheader()
writer.writerows(rows)

Once the API has become more stable over time I am sure we will be able to pull inforamtion like device stability, Site to Site VPN statuses and such...
