Nagios Support Forum

hi team,
the metrics report only have some default services (disk, cpu, memory, load,swap), and does not include services i created so i want to get a csv or pdf file in metrics report using API.

i use this url but it just return like below :
http://192.168.xxx.xxx/nagiosxi/api/v1/ ... ck_cudepth

Result:

{
"recordcount": 0,
"servicestatus": [

]
}

Or is there anyway for get all services metrics report?

The metrics report is not currently available through the API.

Only specific services created by the wizards (or matching exactly what the wizards use) will show up in the metrics report.

Does it show the services under here:

http://192.168.X.X/nagiosxi/api/v1/obje ... Y&pretty=1

Or here?

http://192.168.X.X/nagiosxi/api/v1/obje ... t&pretty=1

thanks for your respone.

i have 2 questions :
1. how to get a service for all host, e.g memory service for all hosts.
2. how to import it to excel or pdf to see a graphics mode as attach file.

1. You can create a servicegroup for memory, then add all the memory services in them, then view the servicegroup information under Home > Servicegroup Summary and click the first icon next to the service group to see all of the services and their current status. You could schedule that page in a PDF report by clicking the very top right menu with three horizontal lines in it, then click the very first icon to schedule the page as a PDF.

2. You would go to Home > Metrics and run the report, then click the very top right menu with three horizontal lines in it, then click the very first icon to schedule the page as a PDF. There isn't currently a way to export the Metrics report functional other than doing that.

hi ssax,
my 2 questions :
"1. how to get a service for all host, e.g memory service for all hosts.
2. how to import it to excel or pdf to see a graphics mode as attach file."

I mean i want to do this using API. I have many services which not include in Metrics report, so i want to get them from API and import to csv or pdf file.

1. The only way to get services to show up in Metrics is if they match one of the commands with metrics below, those are the only services that will show up in Metrics at this time (which get created automatically when you run the wizards and select those services but you can manually do it too):
- You can technically create a service with the same Check Command and metric and attach it to a host and it should show up in there
- You can edit one of the services that is currently showing up in there to see how the service is setup to understand the info below better

The metrics functionality is programmatically done, you cannot get that output from the API. If you want it to show what metrics shows then you would need to do this:

2. You would go to Home > Metrics and run the report, then click the very top right menu with three horizontal lines in it, then click the very first icon to schedule the page as a PDF. There isn't currently a way to export the Metrics report functional other than doing that.

You can view the service status through the API via the endpoints we were previously using.
