details

  • ssid - string, the SSID (Active Directory SID of the endpoint) used to filter the endpoints regardless of their protection status.

Important

Some filters require a specific license to be active, otherwise they are ignored, resulting in an inaccurate API response.

The field name works with partial matching.

The filter returns the items whose names are exact match or start with the specified value. To use the specified value as a suffix, use the asterisk symbol (*).

For example:

If name is computer, the API returns all items whose names start with computer.

If name is *puter, then the API returns a list of all items that contain puter in their names.
