Possible to add host to hostgroup(s) at time of POST?

When POSTing a Host to NagiosXI, is it possible to specify which hostgroups to add the host to? Or does this need to happen later?

I see that it is possible to specify Contacts and ContactGroups...

Are you having trouble with this? That's certainly the idea. See the quote below.

** All normal host directives are able to be used like normal core config definition files.

Yeah, I saw that quote, but didn't know what it meant.

Is there a way to see a listing of all the optional parameters I can pass as well?

Thanks.

Although I should ask, what version of XI are you running?

We're on 5.4.0 for our Dev box.

Btw, thanks for that link. It's way more useful than the API Help menu on our NagiosXI box.

EDIT: Oh my, yes, this is very helpful... Thanks!

Did you have any more questions or can this thread be closed?

I think this is good for now. Thanks.
