addDevice API

Note that turning off auto-assign devices it will also clear out that group/folder so it will be empty. It doesn't delete the actual devices, they will show up elsewhere, but might surprise you if you don't fully understand what are dynamic groups and how they work.

If group 15, 14, or 54 is a dynamic group, you can't add it to that group via the API. It will be added to the group if it meets the group's AppliesTo rule.

Thanks Stuart, 

That helps, how do I change my device group to a manual group?

Just checked ,

and the Auto-assign devices was already unchecked?

yes , I did. All three have that disabled.

this is the body, I was using.

body = logicmonitor_sdk.models.Device(

    display_name='GenesysDevice',  # String | required | example: "Cisco Router"

    name='9.8.8.9',  # String | required | example: "Main Collector"

    preferred_collector_id=5,  # Integer | required | example: 2.0

    disable_alerting=False,  # Boolean | example: True

    auto_balanced_collector_group_id=0,  # Integer

    preferred_collector_group_id=2,  # Integer

    host_group_ids='17,53,54',

    system_properties=[{'name': 'system.staticgroups',

                        'value': 'Customers/GenesysCustomer/Telephony'}

                       ],

    custom_properties=[{'name': 'api.pass', 'value': '********'},

                       {'name': 'api.user', 'value': 'user'},

                       {'name': 'system.categories', 'value': ''}],  # Array

    description='Genesys',  # String | example: "This is a Cisco Router"

    user_permission='write',  # String
