    Can you sort Meraki Devices by Network Name rather than Network ID?

    Hello All,

    I am hoping someone with a bit more expertise than myself, could assist me with an issue. I have been working with the Meraki Dashboard by http template and have that importing my devices and information successfully.

    I have managed to get the group prototype settings working as we would like, but only to an extent. Currently all my devices are auto sorting into their relevant networks which is great, however it is using the network ID macro to do this. My group prototype settings are: Meraki Network - {#NETWORK.ID}

    Is there be a way to display the Network Name rather than its GUID to make it a better experience for my team?

    Many Thanks

    I have worked this out, so replying here in case it helps someone in future.

    In the Cisco Meraki by http template Discovery Rules, I have added new pre-processing steps. I chose replace and entered the GUID as the first string and the friendly name as the replacement text, had to add one per network.

    Unlinked the template and then pulled everything back in again and all the groups are now showing with the changes.
