API: H/T determine service status

[mbeebe]

Hello,

Another API question: how can we determine the status of a service via the API? We'd like to be able to determine if a service is either OK, Warn or Critical.

Thanks,

You could use GET objects/hoststatus and objects/servicestatus.

Code: Select all

https://x.x.x.x/nagiosxi/api/v1/objects/hoststatus?apikey=xxx&pretty=1
http://x.x.x.x/nagiosxi/api/v1/objects/servicestatus?apikey=xxx&pretty=1

Example from the CLI:

Code: Select all

curl -s "http://x.x.x.x/nagiosxi/api/v1/objects/servicestatus?apikey=xxx&pretty=1&host_name=localhost&name=Total%20Processes" | grep current_state
        "current_state": "2",

This service is in CRITICAL state ( "current_state": "2").
