Hi kish,

Welcome to the Nagios Customer Support Forum!

You can do this easily in the CCM by searching for the service and selecting the Manage Hosts button.

If you want to do this from the CLI using the REST API, here's an example command. The REST API is fully documented in the GUI by going to Help > API Docs.

Code: Select all

curl -XPUT "https://<IPADDRESS>nagiosxi/api/v1/config/service/host-01/PING?apikey
<APIKEY>&pretty=1&display_name=PINGTEST&host_name=host-01,host-02&applyconfig=1"

Hope that helps answer your question. Let us know if you need clarification on anything.
