Using `mender-cli devices list` which is great but would me happy to get the device attributes as well. Is there an option?

Hi @uishon,

All the information that you see in the web interface is gathered by the official API, so you can get access to that information using the API itself.

I recommend taking a look at [Mender API docs](https://docs.mender.io/api/#device-api-device-inventory)  
Specially take a look at this one [Mender API docs](https://docs.mender.io/api/#management-api-device-inventory-filters-and-search) for filtering and searching options.

Please let me know if you need help using the API.
