How do we check if we have a downtime scheduled for a host via CGI in Nagios Core 4.x??

probably even get the downtime id for it as well...

The JSON Query Generator is super handy for this sort of thing (where x.x.x.x is your Core install):
http://x.x.x.x/nagios/jsonquery.html

A brief intro to the JSON Query Generator: https://labs.nagios.com/2014/06/19/expl ... -7-part-1/

If you wanted to check if host y.y.y.y has scheduled downtime, you could try the following query (where x.x.x.x is your Core install):

http://x.x.x.x/nagios/cgi-bin/statusjso ... =starttime

downtimelist will be empty if there is no downtime scheduled, otherwise it will contain the downtime id for each scheduled downtime for host y.y.y.y.

Also if you wanted a graphical response, drop the json from the script you are running:

http://x.x.x.x/nagios/cgi-bin/status.cg ... =starttime
