Get all Areas

In the Enlighted Manage (EM), the organization hierarchy includes campuses, buildings, floors, and areas. An area on a floor is a grouping of a subset of devices including Gateways, Sensors, Enlighted Room Control (ERCs) switches, Plug Loads, etc., on a floor. Areas are assigned on a floor based on usage or a specific purpose profile of the area in EM.

This API returns details of all areas on a floor. The Area ID returned for each area is used as the primary identifier in other API calls.
