Programmatically change contact group membership
Posted: Wed Jun 14, 2023 3:34 pm
I am trying to determine if there is a way to programmatically change contact group membership.
Scenario: we have the contact group "Admin-OnCall", and we have contact objects for each of the five team members with their SMS numbers.
We would like to have a script that we can update during working hours that will run as a chron job or scheduled task at 11:59:59 PM every Thursday to change the membership of the "Admin-OnCall" group to the contact object of the person who will next be on call.
If at all possible, I'd prefer to be able to run whatever script from a remote windows server against our nagios installation, but I am open to other solutions as well, including something that would run as a scheduled command from within Nagios itself.
I look forward to any suggestions!
