List/View forticlient endpoint connection to specific ems server

In my test environment, I migrated from FortiEMS client 7.2.2 to 7.4.4.
We deployed EMS on a Hyper-V VM.

After a few manual tests, we'll migrate the remaining endpoints to the Linux EMS server by changing the EMS DNS record.
How can I generate an overview of the EMS servers with endpoint connections/registrations?

well, if you are in the EMS 7.2.2 and you see the endpoint there and with Connections column green up arrow EMS, it usually means that it's connected to the local EMS.

you can view them in the GUI in All Endpoints menu, https://docs.fortinet.com/document/forticlient/7.2.2/ems-administration-guide/391289 or use the API from FNDN if you have access to export them.

Maybe I'm missing something, but I can't see anywhere in the GUI which endpoints are "linked" to which EMS server.
It also doesn't show up in an export.
