How to format action parameters in REST API calls

Island Technology Networks Inc. (Auditmacs)

Hey guys!

I am trying to send a message to a windows desktop legacy device and am having trouble with the body.

I am "Trying it Out!" on the api site https://xxxxxxx.mobicontrolcloud.com/MobiControl/api.

Method 1

{
"Action": "SendMessage",
"Message": "Hey There!",
"DisplayDuration": "NO_TIMER",
"MessageType": "3"
}

Method 2

{
"Action": "SendScript",
"Message": "showmessagebox 'This is a test message with Yes/No button and no timer' NO_TIMER 2"
}

Both are not working. Client ID, Client Secret, Username, Password, and Device ID are configured correctly. What am I doing wrong?

Thank you for your help!

Hi Allen,

I tested on version 14.2 and the following syntax worked for me:

{
"Action": "SendMessage",
"Message":"Test Message Here",

"DisplayDuration":"UntilPressOk",

"MessageType":"Information"
}
