Mist Sites Synthetic Tests API

Synthetic Tests (Marvis Minis) are a feature of Juniper Networks' Mist platform, designed to proactively identify and resolve network issues before they impact users by simulating user connections and validating network configurations.Here are the key points about Marvis Minis:* Proactive Testing: Marvis Minis perform user connection tests to validate connectivity and application reachability issues on your network. These tests run automatically every hour and can also be initiated manually by an admin user.* Scope and Stress Management: By default, Marvis Minis run on a few APs based on the scope it automatically learns, and it can expand the scope to other APs and switches if necessary, without causing additional stress on network services.* Integration with Mist AI: Data from Marvis Minis is continuously fed back into the Mist AI engine, providing additional insights for AIOps responses. This data is also integrated into Marvis Actions for proactive resolution and validation.* Subscription and Accessibility: Marvis Minis are available at no extra charge with a Marvis VNA subscription and do not require additional hardware or software.

Authentication & Security 2

Mist Sites Synthetic Tests API declares 2 security schemes for authenticating requests. An API key is passed in the header as Authorization (apiToken). An API key is passed in the header as X-CSRFToken (csrfToken). By default, every request must be authenticated.

  • apiToken — Preferred authentication method for automation and integrations. Send the API token in the HTTP Authorization header. Format: Authorization: Token {apitoken} N…
  • csrfToken — Session-based authentication for browser or login/password flows. After a successful [Login](/operations/login) request, Mist returns a csrftoken cookie. Send…

Where this information came from

This is an independent, third-party profile of Mist Sites Synthetic Tests API, published by API Evangelist. We do not operate, host, resell, or support these APIs, and we are not affiliated with or endorsed by the company unless stated above. Everything here is built from publicly available information — the company's own site, developer portal, documentation, public repositories, and the specifications it publishes for public use. Nothing is obtained by breaching a system, defeating an access control, or using credentials.

The Kin Score and Agent Readiness rating are independently calculated assessments of a company's public API artifacts, scored against a published rubric. They are not certifications, endorsements, security assessments, or audits.

Corrections, re-scores, and removal are free — no partnership or purchase required, and you do not need to justify the request. A removed company is recorded as unrated, never scored zero for having asked. Acknowledgement within one business day; removal within two.
