It took me a while to figure out what you’re doing. You are posting to /functions and the response contains the list of devices that match. You do this so that you can target a list of devices using an AppliesTo expression rather than a filter. 

You can accomplish the same thing without doing an additional API call and not have to use an unsupported endpoint by using advanced filtering.
