Format for Variables

Variables in Cloudpath are in the following format: ${MAC_ADDRESS}, ${USERNAME},or ${IP_ADDRESS}. See the Enrollment Variables section on the Enrollment Record page to view available variables, variable syntax, and expected values.

The variables are passed through a URL, as in this example: http://test.company.net/ registration?user=${USERNAME}&mac=${MAC_ADDRESS}. The result from this example would be that the username and device MAC address get sent within the notification.

Only variables which are populated at the time of the notification event are sent. MAC addresses and other variables may be populated through events other than onboarding, such as data prompts.

Note: It is recommended that you use URL requests for large amounts of data. For example, you can send the enrollment GUID value in the URL, and then query the Cloudpath system for the enrollment record.
