Nagios rest api to create multiple object in static folder

[scott han]

Hi there,
I have a few questions regarding creating objects using rest api.
1. is it possible to create multiple objects (e.g. hosts, services,servicegroup, timeperiods) in one rest api call?
2. If 1 is yes, is it possible to put these configure definitions as a file, then use that file as a parameter to the rest api?
3. is it possible to create these objects as static, like those under nagios/etc/static folder?

Thanks a lot for your help.

Best Regards,
scott

1.) no
2.) no, however you can create objects on the XI server by placing the file in /usr/local/nagios/etc/import and running apply configuration through the rest API
3.) Not through the API, but you can simply place the files on the server in the static directory and run apply configuration through the rest API
