Hi,
in order to API query our meraki dashboard. I have installed the module meraki (pip install meraki)
[nagios@nvs-nagios-01 ~]$ python
Python 3.9.21 (main, Dec 5 2024, 00:00:00)
[GCC 11.5.0 20240719 (Red Hat 11.5.0-2)] on linux
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import meraki
>>> dashboard = meraki.DashboardAPI(apikey)
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
AttributeError: module 'meraki' has no attribute 'DashboardAPI'
>>> dir(meraki)
['__doc__', '__file__', '__loader__', '__name__', '__package__', '__path__', '__spec__']
As you can see above, i get "AttributeError: module 'meraki' has no attribute 'DashboardAPI'
My server in a Redhat9.5

Curious what version of the Meraki API pip is installed and what version of the API it ends up using. I found this
https://community.meraki.com/t5/Develop ... m-p/216163 link, and following the link in the last post it is evident that there are multiple versions out there.

The installed meraki version:
[root@nvs-nagios-01: ~]# pip list|grep meraki
meraki 1.53.0

Just trying it myself, I'm unable to reproduce your problem:

>>> import meraki
>>> dashboard = meraki.DashboardAPI("ABCD")
