Parent tag not display via api before the sensor is clicked

Hi Marco,

Username and passhash are correct? What result do you get from Invoke-Webrequest?

Kind regards,

PS C:\Powershell> 

It's quite a problem for me since i want to get the tag wheter i visited this host recently or not.

Thank you

Hi Marco,

Bug confirmed. I'll create an issue and link this thread to it. I'll let you know once it's fixed.
Would opening the device settings page via Invoke-Webrequest as an intermediate step work for you?
Because this will not be on high priority from what I can tell due to the low usage rate...
