+Fields         string Name
+
+                       The name of a network. This field will be requested
+                       when trying to connect to a hidden network.
+
+               array{byte} SSID
+
+                       This field is an alternative to "Name" for WiFi
+                       networks and can be used to return the exact binary
+                       representation of a network name.
+
+                       Normally returning the "Name" field is the better

+
+               string Passphrase
+
+                       The passphrase for a network. For example a WEP

+
+Arguments      string Type
+
+                       Contains the type of a field. For example "psk",

+
+               string Requirement
+
+                       Contains the requirement option. Valid values are
+                       "mandatory", "optional" or "alternate".
+
+                       The "alternate" specifies that this field can be

+                       would be the network name or SSID.
+
+                       All "mandatory" fields must be returned, while the
+                       "optional" can be returned if available.
+
+               array{string} Alternates
+
+                       Contains the list of alternate field names this
