Description	This article describes how to move a collector to a collector group in another tenant using the API.
Scope	FortiEDR (Manager).
Solution	To move a collector to a collector group in another tenant, the following URL can be used: https://<manager console URL>/management-rest/inventory/move-collectors?collectors=Orgname\collector&targetCollectorGroup=Orgname-new\collector-group However, the following error may be encountered if the targetCollectorGroup parameter in the URL request is set with a  tenant or collector group name containing special characters such as spaces: Error: b'{"errorMessage":"No group found matching the given \\"targetCollectorGroup\\" parameter"}' To resolve this, special characters should be replaced with their URL-encoded equivalents (%20 in the case of spaces): https://<manager console URL>/management-rest/inventory/move-collectors?collectors=Orgname\collector&targetCollectorGroup=Orgname%20new\collector-group" For other API operations available on the manager console, refer to the official REST API guide in the Fortinet Developer Network: https://fndn.fortinet.net.
