• Have your Kandji domain to hand. For example: https://mycompany.api.kandji.io
• Have your Enrollment Id or ade_token_id to hand. The API that is used for this asset load is the List devices associated to ADE token API request. This request returns a list of devices associated with a specified ade_token_id (referred to as the Enrollment Id in Oomnitza), and their enrollment status. For information on how to obtain an ade_token_idrefer to the List ADE integrations API.
