Meraki Audit v0 API Requests (v0audit.py)

---

(Note: this API key belongs to the Meraki Devnet Sandbox)

Description

CLI application that will export all Meraki Dashboard v0 API calls for one, multiple, or all Meraki Dashboard Organizations (for a given API key).

Motivation

The v0 version of the Meraki API will be sunsetting in the near future. Meraki's customers are encouraged to migrate to v1 of the API. This tool will output API logs for v0 API calls including the associated admin, email, and user agent for v0 API calls.

git clone https://github.com/zabrewer/meraki-apiv0-audit.git

2. Create the virtual environment

python3 -m venv meraki-apiv0-audit

3. Change to the meraki-apiv0-audit directory

cd meraki-apiv0-audit

4. Activate the virtual environment

For Windows

Scripts\activate.bat

For Mac

Example Use

Get all v0 API calls for the given orgs for the last 5 days:

v0audit 6bec4XXXXXXXXXXX 'DevNet Sandbox' 'My organization' Testlab --days 5

Get all v0 API calls for all orgs that the API key has access to for the last 31 days (max):

v0audit 6bec4XXXXXXXXXXX all

• If the --days option is provided, the max is 31, minimum is 1. The default (no --days option given) is 31
• You can provide one or more Meraki org names separated by a space. If there is a space with the org name itself, it must be wrapped in single ('org name') or double ("org name") quotes
• Providing the all orgs argument after the argument will return v0 API call audit for all organizations that the given API key has permission to access.
• Meraki organizations without API enabled are ignored.

Hint: if you want to see all orgs that your API key has access to, simply pass in an org name that does not exist e.g.

v0audit 6bec4XXXXXXXXXXX foo
