| 14 | + |
| 15 | +**Available Channels:** |
| 16 | +* Organization Channels |
| 17 | + |
| 18 | +| Class | Description | |
| 19 | +|-------|-------------| |
| 20 | +| `mistapi.websockets.orgs.InsightsEvents` | Real-time insights events for an organization | |

| 43 | +| `mistapi.websockets.location.DiscoveredBleAssetsEvents` | Real-time discovered BLE assets location events | |
| 44 | + |
| 45 | + |
| 46 | +**Features:** |
| 47 | +- Callback-based message handling |
| 48 | +- Generator-style iteration |
| 49 | +- Context manager support |
| 50 | +- Automatic reconnection with configurable ping intervals |
| 51 | +- Non-blocking background threads |
| 52 | +- Type-safe API with full parameter validation |
| 53 | + |
| 54 | +**Example Usage:** |
| 55 | +```python |
| 56 | +ws = mistapi.websockets.sites.DeviceStatsEvents(apisession, site_ids=["<site_id>"]) |
| 57 | +ws.connect(run_in_background=True) |
| 58 | + |
| 59 | +for msg in ws.receive(): # blocks, yields each message as a dict |
| 60 | + print(msg) |
| 61 | + if some_condition: |
| 62 | + ws.disconnect() # stops the generator cleanly |
| 63 | +``` |
| 64 | + |
| 65 | +#### **1.2 Device Utilities Module** (`mistapi.device_utils`) |
| 66 | +`mistapi.device_utils` provides high-level utilities for running diagnostic commands on Mist-managed devices. Each function triggers a REST API call and streams the results back via WebSocket. The library handles the connection plumbing — you just call the function and get back a `UtilResponse` object. |
| 67 | + |
| 68 | +**Device-Specific Modules** (Recommended): |
| 69 | +| Module | Device Type | Functions | |
| 70 | +|--------|-------------|-----------| |

| 72 | +| `device_utils.ex` | Juniper EX Switches | `ping`, `monitorTraffic`, `retrieveArpTable`, `retrieveBgpSummary`, `retrieveDhcpLeases`, `releaseDhcpLeases`, `retrieveMacTable`, `clearMacTable`, `clearLearnedMac`, `clearBpduError`, `clearDot1xSessions`, `clearHitCount`, `bouncePort`, `cableTest` | |
| 73 | +| `device_utils.srx` | Juniper SRX Firewalls | `ping`, `monitorTraffic`, `retrieveArpTable`, `retrieveBgpSummary`, `retrieveDhcpLeases`, `releaseDhcpLeases`, `showDatabase`, `showNeighbors`, `showInterfaces`, `bouncePort`, `retrieveRoutes` | |
| 74 | +| `device_utils.ssr` | Juniper SSR Routers | `ping`, `retrieveArpTable`, `retrieveBgpSummary`, `retrieveDhcpLeases`, `releaseDhcpLeases`, `showDatabase`, `showNeighbors`, `showInterfaces`, `bouncePort`, `retrieveRoutes`, `showServicePath` | |
| 75 | + |
| 76 | +**Example Usage:** |
| 77 | +```python |
| 78 | +from mistapi.device_utils import ap, ex |
| 79 | + |
| 80 | +# Ping from an AP |
| 81 | +result = ap.ping(apisession, site_id, device_id, host="8.8.8.8") |
| 82 | +print(result.ws_data) |
| 83 | + |
| 84 | +# Retrieve ARP table from a switch |
| 85 | +result = ex.retrieveArpTable(apisession, site_id, device_id) |
| 86 | +print(result.ws_data) |
| 87 | + |
| 88 | +# With real-time callback |
| 89 | +def handle(msg): |
| 90 | + print("got:", msg) |
| 91 | + |
| 92 | +result = ex.cableTest(apisession, site_id, device_id, port="ge-0/0/0", on_message=handle) |
| 93 | +``` |
| 94 | + |
| 95 | +#### **1.3 New API Endpoints** |

| 100 | + |
| 101 | +**Enhanced Query Parameters**: |
| 102 | +- Additional filtering options across alarms, clients, and devices endpoints |
| 103 | +- Improved parameter handling in JSI, NAC clients, and WAN clients APIs |
| 104 | + |
| 105 | +--- |
| 106 | + |
| 107 | +### 2. SECURITY IMPROVEMENTS |
| 108 | + |
| 109 | +##### **HashiCorp Vault SSL Verification** |

| 118 | +##### **Lazy Module Loading** |
| 119 | +- Implemented lazy loading for `api` and `cli` subpackages |
| 120 | +- Reduces initial import time by deferring heavy module imports until accessed |
| 121 | +- Uses `__getattr__` for transparent lazy loading |
| 122 | + |
| 123 | +--- |
| 124 | + |
| 125 | +### 4. CODE QUALITY IMPROVEMENTS |
| 126 | + |
| 127 | +##### **HTTP Request Error Handling** |
| 128 | +- Consolidated duplicate error handling logic into `_request_with_retry()` method |

| 131 | +- Centralizes 429 rate limit handling and retry logic |
| 132 | + |
| 133 | +##### **Session Management** |
| 134 | +- Added `_new_session()` helper method for consistent session initialization |
| 135 | +- Improves code reusability when creating new HTTP sessions |
| 136 | + |
| 137 | +##### **API Token Management** |
| 138 | +- Added `validate` parameter to `set_api_token()` method |
| 139 | +- Allows skipping token validation when needed (default: `True`) |
| 140 | +- Useful for faster initialization when tokens are known to be valid |
| 141 | + |
| 142 | +##### **Logging Improvements** |
| 143 | +- Fixed logging sanitization to use `getMessage()` instead of direct `msg` access |
| 144 | +- Clear `record.args` after sanitization to prevent re-formatting issues |
| 145 | +- Improved logging format consistency using %-style formatting |
| 146 | + |
