Documented steps

  1. Authenticate and GET {base}/networkDevices.
  2. Filter by role with classification (array; values device, integration, server, controller) or by type with objectType (values from objectTypeEnumSet, e.g. objectTypeEnumSet.bacnetIntegrationClass). These two parameters are mutually exclusive - sending both is invalid.
  3. Page with page (1-based, default 1) and pageSize (default 100, minimum 1, maximum 1000).
  4. Sort with sort; valid values are name, -name, itemReference, -itemReference, categoryId, -categoryId, firmwareVersion, -firmwareVersion, typeId, -typeId. Default is name.
  5. On Metasys 15.0 and later, set includeIncomplete=true to also return devices that have not yet synchronized their archive with the Site Director. Those entries use the incompleteNetworkDevice schema and carry fewer fields.
  6. Read the envelope: {total, items[], next, previous, self, effectivePermissions}. effectivePermissions is a set of arrays (canDelete, canView, canModify) of device ids, not a per-item boolean.
  7. Follow 'next' until it is null rather than incrementing page blindly.
  8. Descend the hierarchy with GET {base}/networkDevices/{networkDeviceId}/networkDevices, which supports page, pageSize and sort but not the classification/objectType/includeIncomplete filters.
  9. From a device, reach its objects and spaces via the relationship links on the payload (objectsUrl and GET /networkDevices/{networkDeviceId}/spaces).
