REST API Query

[rajasegar]

Hi,

How to I get REST API to get all the services status for a particular host or service?

Thanks

In the Nagios XI GUI, if you go to the Help menu and click on the Objects Reference link, it shows examples on how to get status information for hosts and Services.

If you want to get the status for one host, you would add the host_name= and then the name of the host. The example below displays the status for the localhost.

Code: Select all

curl -XGET "https://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/nagiosxi/api/v1/objects/hoststatus?apikey=<APIKEY>&pretty=1&host_name=localhost"

You would use the following example to get the service status of one service called HTTP for the localhost host.

Code: Select all

curl -XGET "https://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx/nagiosxi/api/v1/objects/servicestatus?apikey=<APIKEY>&host_name=localhost&name=HTTP&pretty=1" -k

Try them out and see if they work for your needs.

Thanks works well.

Is it possible to extract only the following properties or I need to grep the output?
1) "status_text": "OK - load average per CPU: 0.26, 0.27, 0.25",
2) "current_state": "0",
3) "performance_data": "load1=0.259;3.000;5.000;0; load5=0.265;3.000;5.000;0; load15=0.254;3.000;5.000;0;",

There isn't any automatic filtering, so you would need to extract them in your script that is getting the JSON
