2. Make sure analytics and Scanning API are both enabled.
3. Make note of the Validator string, which will be used in the device_tracker configuration.
4. Click Add a Post URL:
   1. Set the Post URL to https://YOUR_HOSTNAME/api/meraki
   2. Set the Secret to a randomly generated string, and make note of it for the device_tracker configuration.
   3. Make sure the API Version is set to 2.0.
   4. Hit Save in the bottom right of the page.
