Hello Everyone,

I'd like your help to understand how to move a device from one device group to another. According to the API documentation there are 2 ways that we can go about this. However, I haven't succeeded in either of ones. 

Please advise. Thank you

1. POST /devices/{deviceId}/actions

  • Send Actions to a Device

2. POST /devicegroups/{path}/members

  • Add or Move a Devices to a Device Group

Use PUT /devices/{deviceId}/parentPath for a single device or (as you already found) POST /devicegroups/{path}/members for multiple devices.

Hello Refael,

I tried that PUT method in the past but no success. I have alos tried both encoded path and referenceid in various format but always get  "Message": "Unauthorized access or invalid reference to specified object" in return. Any other ideas?

Updated:

I was able to perform this action using POST /devicegroups/{path}/members, it didn't work as before because I was using wrong datatype where deviceids asks for Array[string].

Thank you
