To get the Thing IP address, see Get Thing information

Example using cURL:

curl -X POST \
    --url "https://console.monogoto.io/thing/ThingId_ICCID_{ICCID}/ping" \
    -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
    -H "Authorization: Bearer {TOKEN_HERE}" \
    -H "apikey: {Customer ID}" \
    -d "{ \"IPAddress\": \"{THING_IP_ADDRESS}\"}"

The above shown command needs to be replaced with information: {ICCID} - replace with your Monogoto Thing ICCID number {TOKEN_HERE} - replace with your token {CUSTOMER_ID} - (optional) replace with your customer ID. It can be received together with a Login Token or from request to obtain Thing information. {THING_IP_ADDRESS} - replace with your thing IP address If needed this API can be tested and used in the Monogoto portal following this path: Thing POST /thing/{ThingId}/ping
