We created a REST API Administrator on a FortiGate 80E (6.4.6) to monitor certain access point data. The programmer trying to make this work has requested the following:
"We need the proper syntax for a remote server making a REST API call to retrieve an active list of devices (by mac address) from the Fortinet controller. Some systems call this a “presence API” call."
I hope that makes sense. Can anyone help?
Thank you!!

Hi,
I don't know nothing about 'presence api call' , but you could start with the basics, retrieving the devices and the filter the output by mac address
i.e:
https://<your_FGT_IP:port>/api/v2/monitor//wifi/client/?access_token=<your_API_token>
If you want filter by MAC: &format=mac
That should do the job

Thank you, Abel! I have forwarded on your response on to the programmer. I'll let you know if that is what he needed.
Sounds like this did the trick! Thank you so much!
