You are correct; they have limited the free version to 3 Admins. If you have more, a great suggestion from @schrumb, rename your unused admins. If you delete them, you won’t be able to add them back.
Update
You can now convert Dell Wyse 5070, 5470, and 5470 All-In-One Thin Clients and OptiPlex 3000 Thin Clients Windows 10 IoT to ThinOS 2306 (9.4.2103) using the Conversion Installer and ThinOS Image file.

Greetings all, first I have not played with the API interface, I know of companies using it to interface with their service console. Here is some reading materials that may help you out.
Enable Wyse Management Suite API
Wyse Management Suite server uses a proprietary API to serve requests generated from the user interface components. User Interface created with java scripts which uses a rest like API call to get required data in JSON format. The JSON format is request-specific. You can retrieve the device details or perform actions from the Wyse Management Suite server and integrate the server with your custom client such as service now.https://api-marketplace.dell.com/#/overview-doc/3788/7928/docs/Overview.md
There have been server updates to WTOS RDP, best to upgrade incrementally a test device and see the results. What is the server version you are accessing?
When in Classic mode, make sure to enable Admin mode. To access Admin mode, Right-click on desktop, then select Administrator Mode and enter credentials.
Within your WMS policy and the RDP Connection settings, do you have “Enable the redirection of Other supported Plug and Play devices” Checked?

Greetings! Have you referenced the Dell Wyse ThinOS Version 8.6 INI Reference Guide located at https://dl.dell.com/topicspdf/thinos_8_6_ig_en-us.pdf? There is several INI settings to enable and use SNMP.

Greetings! If you are referring to Select Groups, at your Default Group Policy, Click the + to add a new group. There you will see an option on the Description field “This is a ThinOS Select group parent”, check this box. You can optionally add specific admins below.
Now click Save.With the new Select Group created you can now create policies under the select group, i.e. Broker 1, then another for Broker 2. Note, add user devices to the group that will be the default group for the user. What the user will see is a login screen with a dropdown for the other brokers defined.
Hope this helps.
