List Devices Expand Misdocumentation

Hello,

I was recently using the devices API and I wanted to use the expand query param defined here (Devices).

When I attempted to make a curl like this one (as defined in the documentation
curl -X GET "https://xxx.okta.com/api/v1/devices?expand=string" -H "Authorization: SSWS xxx"
I get this repose
{"errorCode":"E0000002","errorSummary":"The request was not valid: Invalid expand operation specified: (string)","errorLink":"E0000002","errorId":"oaeRcKYr-mOTL-ykaUAKtUWhA","errorCauses":[]}%

If I set it eq to true it also fails and if I dont supply any query string it works but does not return _embedded.

What am I doing wrong?

Hey I figured it out,

"https://xxx.okta.com/api/v1/devices?expand=users

You have to specify the expand value!

Might want to clarify the documentation.

Thank you for your feedback! It does seem like we could show examples of possible values for the expand parameter in our documentation. I will pass this along to our documentation team so we can try to prevent future confusion regarding this.
