Cisco Meraki wireless API ingest new network asset discovery

Meraki access points have this phenomenal feature called host isolation that lets you completely isolate endpoints connected to Meraki APs from one another. Endpoints cannot ping the gateway or any other devices on the same SSID. You can make exceptions to that, but you are defeating a security feature. Further complicating this is Meraki's DHCP range is 10.0.0.0/8 and cannot be customized easily. Passively scanning 16777214 addresses is likely an impossible task. Meraki has a robust API, and I'd like to formerly request an API query to find devices on non-guest SSIDs or partner selected SSIDs and compare those with agents presently in Cavelo to determine which devices are newly discovered and missing the Cavelo agent.
