    • Access Control

    The following capabilities are required to access this API: AddDeviceDiscoveryProfile, CloneDeviceDiscoveryProfile

    POST /device-discovery-rulesVersion 6

    This method is used to add the device discovery targets from collection of targets.

    Sample Usage

    This API makes an asynchronous method call; so, you can optionally specify queue and schedule parameters:

    POST /device-discovery-rules?queue=<queue>&schedule=<schedule>


    Note: The queue URL denoted by <queue> must have been created already.


    • Parameters:
      NameTypeURI TypeDescriptionRequired
      queueQueue URLQueryA fully qualified queue URL, where job progress notifications will be sent (See Asynchronous API Usage)N
      schedulecron-like-expressionQuerySchedule this API in the future, by specifying a cron-like-expression (See Job Scheduling)N
