cURL command

curl -X POST -H "Content-Type: application/json" -H "Authorization: Bearer <EMM_API_TOKEN>" -d @'<JSON_PAYLOAD>' -k -v https://<EMM_HOST>:<EMM_HTTPS_PORT>/ios/operation/ldap

For more information on how to generate the EMM API token, see Generating the EMM API Token.
Define the path to the JSON file, which lists the devices that this operation is applied on, as the <JSON_PAYLOAD> value.
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.
