How can I disable WiFi during selected time periods using the UI and/or using the API ?

Hello,
I have deployed Omada Software Controller on a Linux VM and have multiple EAP660 HD and EAP650-Wall. Until now I was using the time range profiles to "disable" some SSIDs during selected time periods. Unfortunately I realized quite fast that the time range profiles to not "turn off" the wireless network, but just forbids devices to connect to it during selected time frames. This results in useless power usage which I want to avoid. So I need to find a way to turn them off.
First question: is it a way with Omada Software controller UI to really "turn off" a wireless network based on an AP on a time range profile (i.e. same as pressing the "on/off" toggle in the config UI of an AP)? If yes could you please explain how to do it ?
As an alternative, I would like to use the Omada API to turn on/off a wireless network based on a time period (from cron or from a remote server). I found the API document for 5.9.9 but could not find it for my version (5.12.7) on the download page.
Second question: where can I find the API documentation for Omada Software Controller API v.5.12.7 ?
Meantime, I read the API for 5.9.9 and saw that there is a "modify AP" api "/{omadacId}/api/v2/sites/{siteId}/eaps/{apMac}" with PATCH verb. However I'm not sure how to turn on/off the SSID (it's not clear enough, the page display is a bit messy).
Third question: How can I turn on/off a given SSID on a selected AP using the "/{omadacId}/api/v2/sites/{siteId}/eaps/{apMac}" API ?
Fourth (bonus) question: How can I change Tx power of a selected AP using the "/{omadacId}/api/v2/sites/{siteId}/eaps/{apMac}" API ?
Thanks a lot for your help!

1.Are you using the Wifi Schedule function? After selecting radio off, the EAP should no longer transmit signals.
2.It seems like there is no API documentation for 5.12, I suggest you use OpenAPI to achieve your needs.You need change site to Global view and select Setting->Platform Intergration->Open api.You canrefer to online API Document.
