Not Receiving Bandwidth Capacity from SD-WAN Monitoring API

Swati.Singh22 — Tue, 26 Aug 2025 15:19:17 GMT

Hi team,

We're currently using the following API to retrieve bandwidth metrics:
https://api.sase.paloaltonetworks.com/sdwan/monitor/v2.0/api/monitor/network_point_metrics_bw

We're successfully receiving the bandwidth usage data; however, the response does not include the bandwidth capacity as expected.
Could you please clarify whether the API supports returning bandwidth capacity? If so, are there any specific parameters or configurations required to retrieve it?

Also , Given the current limitation of 2 API calls per second per object per IP, and since bandwidth data is fetched per circuit per site, are there any recommended practices or alternate API endpoints for fetching site-level aggregated bandwidth capacity instead of making multiple calls per circuit?

I see that you are using the unified API for Prisma Access and SDWAN.
