4Operations via the Console

This section provides the details of the REST APIs used as operations via the EMM console:

Getting device operations

Error rendering macro 'excerpt-include' : No link could be created for 'EMM210:Getting Device Operations'.

Getting installed application details of a device

Description Get the list of applications that a device has subscribed.

Resource Path /{type}/{id}/apps

URL /mdm-admin/operations/{type}/{id}/apps

HTTP Method GET

Request/Response Format application/json

cURL command

curl -X GET -H "Content-Type: application/json" -H "Authorization: Bearer <EMM_API_TOKEN>" -k -v https://<EMM_HOST>:<EMM_HTTPS_PORT>/mdm-admin/operations/{type}/{id}/apps

For more information on how to generate the <EMM_API_TOKEN>, see Generating the EMM API Token.
By default, <EMM_HOST> is localhost. However, if you are using a public IP, the respective IP address or domain needs to be specified.
By default, <EMM_HTTPS_PORT> has been set to 9443. However, if the port offset has been incremented by n, the default port value needs to be incremented by n.
Define the device type as the value for {type}. Example: ios, android or windows.
Define the device ID as the value for {id}.

Example:

curl -X GET -H "Content-Type: application/json" -H "Authorization: Bearer 33392fb365b3ac693b405b565ddc8a3a" -k -v https://localhost:9443/mdm-admin/operations/ios/f409r4c55924rt4af9a44tts15y9d6cd56h1047d/apps

Sample JSON Output
Definition

The following is extracted from the sample output to get a better understanding of the fields:

 {  
   "id":1,
   "platform":"ios",
   "name":"WSO2%20Agent",
   "isActive:"true",
   "applicationIdentifier":"org.wso2.emm.agent"
}

Property Value	Description
`id`	The ID of the application that is installed on the device.
`platform`	The mobile device platform. It can be `android`, `ios` or `windows`.
`name`	The name of the application that is installed on the device.
`isActive`	Defines of the application is active or inactive.
`app_identifier`	The application package name.

Getting pagination details for operations on a device

Description

You will carry out many operations on a device. In a situation where you wish to view the all the operations carried out on a device it is not feasible to show all the details on one page therefore the details are paginated.

Example: You carry out 21 operations via a given device. When you wish to see the operations carried out, the details of the 21 operations will be broken down into 3 pages with 10 operation details per page.

Resource Path pagination/{type}/{id}

URL /mdm-admin/operations/paginate/{type}/{id}

HTTP Method GET

Request/Response Format application/json

cURL command

curl -X GET -H "Content-Type: application/json" -H "Authorization: Bearer <EMM_API_TOKEN>" -k -v https://<EMM_HOST>:<EMM_HTTPS_PORT>/mdm-admin/paginate/operation/{type}/{id}

For more information on how to generate the <EMM_API_TOKEN>, see Generating the EMM API Token.
By default, <EMM_HOST> is localhost. However, if you are using a public IP, the respective IP address or domain needs to be specified.
By default, <EMM_HTTPS_PORT> has been set to 9443. However, if the port offset has been incremented by n, the default port value needs to be incremented by n.
Define the device type as the value for {type}. Example: ios, android or windows.
Define the device ID as the value for {id}.

Example:

curl -X GET -H "Content-Type: application/json" -H "Authorization: Bearer 33392fb365b3ac693b405b565ddc8a3a" -k -v https://localhost:9443/mdm-admin/paginate/operations/ios/f409r4c55924rt4af9a44tts15y9d6cd56h1047d

Filter the device details using the query parameters given below:

start - Provide the starting pagination index. Example 10

You will have many devices registered with the EMM. In a situation where you wish to view the all the registered devices it is not feasible to show all the details on one page therefore the details are paginated.
length - Provide how many device details you require from the starting pagination index. For example if you require the device details from the 10^th pagination index to the 15^th, you must define 10 as the value for start and 5 as the value for length.

If you wish to get the device details within a predefined index range you need to define both the start and length fields.
Example: https://localhost:9443/mdm-admin/devices?start=10&length=5There will be situations were you will not have device details in the specified index range. In such situation all the details of the devices registered to EMM will be given.
