Cisco Meraki Setup

Cisco Meraki is a cloud-managed networking platform. Once connected, Junto can look up devices, view connected clients, check uplink health, review alerts, and inspect inventory — giving the AI agent full network visibility during ticket triage.

Prerequisites

  • A Cisco Meraki account with Dashboard API access enabled
  • A Meraki API key
  • Access to the Meraki organizations you want to monitor

Step 1: Generate an API Key

See Cisco Meraki Dashboard API for detailed instructions.

  1. Log in to the Meraki Dashboard.
  2. Navigate to Organization > API & Webhooks and ensure API access is enabled.
  3. Go to your profile and generate an API key.
  4. Copy the API key.

Step 2: Configure in Junto

  1. In Junto, go to Settings > Integrations > Cisco Meraki.
  2. Click Add Configuration and enter your API Key. This is encrypted before storage.
  3. Click Create. Junto validates the connection before saving.

Step 3: Map Companies to Organizations

  1. After connecting, Junto lists the Meraki organizations accessible with your API key.
  2. Use the company mapping interface to link each Junto company to its Meraki organization.
  3. Save mappings.

TIP

All Meraki tools are read-only. The AI agent can view devices, networks, clients, and alerts but cannot modify configurations, reboot devices, or block clients.

Troubleshooting

  • Connection fails -- Verify your API key is correct and that Dashboard API access is enabled for your organization.
  • No organizations listed -- Confirm your API key has access to the expected Meraki organizations.
  • Devices not found -- Check that the company-to-organization mapping is correct.
  • Missing VLANs -- VLAN listing is only available on MX security appliances. Other device types do not expose VLANs through this integration.
