Update an entity

Updates the entity name, or entity settings.

Updating Entity Settings

Audit logging is not yet supported for settings changed using this endpoint.

Print Tracker supports dynamic settings inheritance. This means that settings set at a parent entity will be inherited by all child entities, installs, and devices unless explicitly overridden. In order to be clear about how settings are being changed within the context of inheritance, this endpoint allows you to specify an array of settings that you want to set and an array of setting paths that you want to reset (remove any explicit value so that the value is inherited from the parent).

The following settings paths are allowed to be set or reset. When setting a value, the following table describes the types of values that are allowed.

Path
Supported Values
snmp.version One of: 1, 2, 3
snmp.communities Array of strings
snmp.v3Algorithm One of: MD5, SHA
snmp.v3Context String
snmp.v3Username String
snmp.v3PrivacyPassword String
deviceDiscovery.ipaddress An array of IP addresses, ranges, or CIDR blocks to scan. May be formatted in any of the following styles, 10.0.0.1, 10.0.0.1-10, 10.0.0.*, 10.0.0.0/24
deviceDiscovery.excludeIPAddress An array of IP addresses to exclude from scanning.
labels.<key> Any label key values can be provided. Both the keys and values must be strings.
Authorizations:

Create a device

Creates a device under the specified entity. This endpoint can be used to create devices in Print Tracker prior to discovering the physical devices using a Print Tracker data collection agent. Currently, this endpoint only supports creating devices with a smaller subset of the fields specified.

If the device already exists, this endpoint will return the existing device. This means that calls to this endpoint are idempotent.

If a data collection agent discovers a device with the same serial number in the future, the device will be updated with the new data. The values for properties in the schema below like make or model do not need to be perfect. As long as the serial number matches exactly, once the device is discovered by the data collection agent, all other properties will be updated.

Authorizations:
ApiKeyAuth
path Parameters
entityId
required
any

The ID of the entity to load devices from.

Request Body schema: application/json
Array
make
string

The device's manufacturer, e.g. "HP", "Brother", "Canon".

model
string

The device's model, e.g. "LaserJet 4000", "HL-L2340DW".

serialNumber
