What are affordable managed network switches that have a REST api?

For one of my college classes, I need to create an AR application. Given my homelab hobby, I thought I'd recreate Ubiquity's Unify AR experience using a Cisco or some other company's network switch.

I am, however, having trouble finding any information on what switches have REST APIs. There is Aruba, but they're so far out of my price range it's not even funny.

At the most basic level, I need to get info about what ip and mac is connected to what port on the switch.

I looked into SNMP, but tbh it looks anything but "simple", and I'd prefer to work with a REST api.

My budget for a switch would be 200€ at most. I'm okay buying used.
