This integration enables ThreatDefence to monitor activity across Meraki-managed devices—including firewalls, switches, wireless access points, and endpoints—allowing correlation with other security data to detect threats, enforce policies, and accelerate response. *** ## Step 1. Obtain Your Meraki API Key To interact with the Meraki Dashboard API, you must first obtain an API key: 1. Open your Meraki dashboard at . 2. Navigate to **Organization → Settings**. 3. Ensure the setting **Enable access to the Cisco Meraki Dashboard API** is turned on. 4. Click your account email address in the top-right corner and go to **My Profile**. 5. Generate your **API Key**. *** ## Step 2. Find the Organization name and ID (Optional) If your Meraki setup has more than one organization enabled, and you need only selected organization's data, follow these steps to list the organization name(s) or ID(s) exactly as shown.

The selected organization name appears in the organization drop-down menu, at the top left corner. 3. If you have access to multiple organizations, click the drop-down to view all organization names. 4. Note the exact organization name(s) that should remain enabled. Get Organization ID(s). ( This is the preferred option as this is unique and exact ) 1. Follow Step 1 and obtain your MERAKI-API-KEY. 2. Use the following cURL command, with the above key, ```dotenv curl -L -H 'Authorization: Bearer MERAKI-API-KEY' \ 'https://api.meraki.com/api/v1/organizations' ``` 3. You would see the response in the following format. ```json [ { "id": "123456", "name": "My Organization 01" }, { "id": "789012", "name": "Organization-2" } ] ``` 4.
