19 REST API Guide–OpenManage Essentials
<BASE_URI>/Devices/$sort(colu
mn=Name,Id;direction=0,1)?Glo
balStatus=2&Type=2
All Unknown and Unclassified Devices sorted by Name
(Ascending) and then by Id (Descending)
2.2.1 Devices by direct access
<BASE_URI>/Devices
The resulting payload from this API is slightly different that the payload returned by the other device-related
REST API calls. After all devices are enumerated in the resulting XML payload, two additional pieces of
information are returned as well:
• AddedOrUpdatedTimestamp
• DeletedTimestamp
Timestamps
The AddedOrUpdatedTimestamp and DeletedTimestamp denote the latest timestamps associated with the
device payload just returned. These timestamps can be used to retrieve delta information by a consumer.
2.2.2 Delete Device
The following URI allows user to delete device from OME until it is discovered next time. This will remove the
device from the device tree and it will not be shown under any group.
<BASE_URI>/Devices/{deviceid}
Operation: DELETE
