Can Nagios XI use REST API calls to gather information from a third party tool

I am primarily looking at Unisphere for VMAX Rest API function

I do not use this tool but a third party has asked me the question

Integration for other EMC products is possible but the VMAX is not listed

I'm not aware of anything for the VMAX Rest API, but curl is readily available on most Nagios machines and can be used in a script to create a plugin.

Are some useful documents to help get started on creating custom plugins.
