Your Meraki estate, watched every 30 seconds and ticketed for you
The SmartTile Cisco Meraki monitoring integration puts every MX, MS and MR on the same pane as your circuits. When a device drops, the ticket is already open in the ITSM your team works in.
The Meraki Dashboard sees everything. Someone still has to be looking.
Meraki knows the moment an access point drops, an uplink loses packets or a license nears expiry. But its alert stops at an email. SmartTile keeps the Meraki you already own and adds the part that’s missing: it records the outage, opens the ticket at the right site, and keeps the history next to your circuits and every other vendor.
What your team gets from the Cisco Meraki integration
Outages become tickets, not emails
When a Meraki device stays offline past your threshold, SmartTile emails the NOC and opens a ticket at that site in your ITSM. When it recovers, a restored email follows.
No more surprise license lapses
Licenses and subscriptions are checked every minute, with warnings at 90, 60, 30, 15, 5 and 1 days, and co-term date shifts caught automatically.
Proof for every WAN complaint
Uplink loss and latency are kept for 35 days per uplink, with threshold tickets on loss, latency, temperature and bandwidth.
Know when monitoring goes blind
If the Meraki API goes quiet, devices turn UNKNOWN, never green, and the NOC is told monitoring is blind.
VPN tunnels watched, not assumed
AutoVPN pairs and third-party IPsec peers are checked every 60 seconds. A watched tunnel down for 3 minutes opens one ticket.
Every config change has a name
Each Dashboard configuration change is logged with the admin who made it, and firmware advisories track what is running against what is available.
When something goes wrong
| The moment | Today | With SmartTile |
|---|---|---|
| An AP drops off | Someone notices in the Dashboard, or a user calls. | The device goes DOWN after your threshold, the NOC is emailed and a ticket opens at that site. |
| The API goes quiet | Everything stays green because nothing says otherwise. | Three failed status reads turn devices UNKNOWN, and the NOC is told monitoring is blind. |
| A device leaves its network | It shows the last good status for weeks. | Flagged as not in any network, with who removed it and when. |
| A license is expiring | Discovered the day it stops passing traffic. | A countdown of emails from 90 days out. |
Why IT leaders add it to their stack
More from the Meraki you already pay for
Nothing to replace. SmartTile turns your existing Meraki investment into automated tickets and history.
One pane across every vendor
Meraki sits beside your circuits, firewalls and ITSM through the Dashboard API v1, with no agent or appliance.
Read-only by default, every action logged
A read-only key powers monitoring. Every Dashboard config change is recorded with the admin’s name.
Fewer missed outages and lapsed licenses
Your team works the fix while SmartTile handles the alert, the ticket and the license countdown.

Cisco Meraki integration FAQs
The Meraki Dashboard already alerts. Why add SmartTile?
Meraki sends an email. SmartTile records the outage, opens the ticket at the right site in your ITSM, and keeps the history next to your circuits and other vendors.
Will SmartTile change our Meraki configuration?
Monitoring only reads. Actions that change a device need a full-admin key and a permitted user, and firmware windows and VPN auto-heal stay off until you turn them on.
Does the Cisco Meraki monitoring integration need an agent or appliance?
No. SmartTile calls the Meraki cloud with one API key per company. There is no agent, no appliance and no inbound firewall rule.
Which Meraki products are covered?
Every organization, network and device the key can see, including MX, MS, MR, MG, MV and MT.
Our key sees many organizations. Can we limit what SmartTile shows?
Yes. Hide the organizations you don’t want and import only the devices you pick.
