sys_info
data
application_id
event_id
operation_mode
lc_recorded_at (followed by a timestamp)
nc_recorded_at (followed by a timestamp)

All the information is periodically uploaded to the following URL:

It also checks the validity of the device's authentication token using the following URL:

  • https://dauth-%.ndas.srv.nintendo.net/v1/device_auth_token
