Technical Tip: JSON API to fetch device information along with ADOM information

Solution:

The following regular API syntax fetches the device list from FortiAnalyzer/FortiManager, but not the ADOM name.

{
"method": "get",
"params": [{
"url": "/dvmdb/device"
}
],
"session": "{{session}}",
"id": 1
}

Add the optional flag 'extra info' as shown below to fetch the ADOM name as well:

{
"method": "get",
"params": [{
"option": ["extra info"],
"url": "/dvmdb/device"
}
],
"session": "{{session}}",
"id": 1
}

The response will include ADOM information in the API response for devices being managed in the root ADOM, as shown below:

"extra info": {
"adom": "root"
},
