Other capability APIs
Other capability APIs
Scope
These methods have dedicated names and do not appear in device.capability.list. Parameter tables add Default and Legal values columns compared with property get/set pages. They are not property get/set—do not mix them with “Read … property / Set … property”. Wi-Fi signal levels: Network; date format and upgrade events: System. Details, online/offline state, and binding: Device management.
Legacy HTTP mapping: Device configuration and control and Migrate from legacy APIs to device capabilities (e.g. device.reboot.execute → restartDevice; legacy getDeviceUtcTimeZone split into device.time.get + device.timezone.get/set).
Reader notes
Start with Using capabilities. Call device.capability.list before you use IDs on this page. See Permission codes and Capability errors.
