Returns a list of datasources
HTTP Method:GET
URI: /setting/datasources
Request Parameters:
By default, 50 datasources will be returned. You can include sort, filter, fields, size, and offset parameters to control what data is included in the response and how it is formatted.
Operators include:
The following Python script requests datasources in the api.logicmonitor.com account:
#!/bin/env python import requests import json import hashlib import base64 import time import hmac #Account Info AccessId ='48v2wRzfK94y53sq5EuF' AccessKey ='H_D9i(f5~B^U36^K6i42=^nS~e75gy382Bf6{)P+' Company = 'api' #Request Info httpVerb ='GET' resourcePath = '/setting/datasources' queryParams = '' data = '' #Construct URL url = 'https://'+ Company +'.logicmonitor.com/santaba/rest' + resourcePath +queryParams #Get current time in milliseconds epoch = str(int(time.time() * 1000)) #Concatenate Request details requestVars = httpVerb + epoch + data + resourcePath #Construct signature hmac1 = hmac.new(AccessKey.encode(),msg=requestVars.encode(),digestmod=hashlib.sha256).hexdigest() signature = base64.b64encode(hmac1.encode()) #Construct headers auth = 'LMv1 ' + AccessId + ':' + signature.decode() + ':' + epoch headers = {'Content-Type':'application/json','Authorization':auth} #Make request response = requests.get(url, data=data, headers=headers) #Print status and body of response print('Response Status:',response.status_code) print('Response Body:',response.content)
The following Python script will return the id and name for datasources in api.logicmonitor.com, where the results sorted in ascending order by the id:
#!/bin/env python import requests import json import hashlib import base64 import time import hmac #Account Info AccessId ='48v2wRzfK94y53sq5EuF' AccessKey ='H_D9i(f5~B^U36^K6i42=^nS~e75gy382Bf6{)P+' Company = 'api' #Request Info httpVerb ='GET' resourcePath = '/setting/datasources' queryParams = '?fields=id,name&sort=+id' data = '' #Construct URL url = 'https://'+ Company +'.logicmonitor.com/santaba/rest' + resourcePath +queryParams #Get current time in milliseconds epoch = str(int(time.time() * 1000)) #Concatenate Request details requestVars = httpVerb + epoch + data + resourcePath #Construct signature hmac1 = hmac.new(AccessKey.encode(),msg=requestVars.encode(),digestmod=hashlib.sha256).hexdigest() signature = base64.b64encode(hmac1.encode()) #Construct headers auth = 'LMv1 ' + AccessId + ':' + signature.decode() + ':' + epoch headers = {'Content-Type':'application/json','Authorization':auth} #Make request response = requests.get(url, data=data, headers=headers) #Print status and body of response print('Response Status:',response.status_code) print('Response Body:',response.content)
The following Python request will return datasources in api.logicmonitor.com that have an applies to function including “isLinux”:
#!/bin/env python import requests import json import hashlib import base64 import time import hmac #Account Info AccessId ='48v2wRzfK94y53sq5EuF' AccessKey ='H_D9i(f5~B^U36^K6i42=^nS~e75gy382Bf6{)P+' Company = 'api' #Request Info httpVerb ='GET' resourcePath = '/setting/datasources' queryParams = '?filter=appliesTo~isLinux' data = '' #Construct URL url = 'https://'+ Company +'.logicmonitor.com/santaba/rest' + resourcePath +queryParams #Get current time in milliseconds epoch = str(int(time.time() * 1000)) #Concatenate Request details requestVars = httpVerb + epoch + data + resourcePath #Construct signature hmac1 = hmac.new(AccessKey.encode(),msg=requestVars.encode(),digestmod=hashlib.sha256).hexdigest() signature = base64.b64encode(hmac1.encode()) #Construct headers auth = 'LMv1 ' + AccessId + ':' + signature.decode() + ':' + epoch headers = {'Content-Type':'application/json','Authorization':auth} #Make request response = requests.get(url, data=data, headers=headers) #Print status and body of response print('Response Status:',response.status_code) print('Response Body:',response.content)
Returns details for a particular datasource
URI: /setting/datasources/{id}
Request Parameters:You can include a filter parameter to control which properties are displayed in the response and how they are formatted:
The following Python script returns the details for the datasource with id of 345
#!/bin/env python import requests import json import hashlib import base64 import time import hmac #Account Info AccessId ='48v2wRzfK94y53sq5EuF' AccessKey ='H_D9i(f5~B^U36^K6i42=^nS~e75gy382Bf6{)P+' Company = 'api' #Request Info httpVerb ='GET' resourcePath = '/setting/datasources/345' queryParams = '' data = '' #Construct URL url = 'https://'+ Company +'.logicmonitor.com/santaba/rest' + resourcePath +queryParams #Get current time in milliseconds epoch = str(int(time.time() * 1000)) #Concatenate Request details requestVars = httpVerb + epoch + data + resourcePath #Construct signature hmac1 = hmac.new(AccessKey.encode(),msg=requestVars.encode(),digestmod=hashlib.sha256).hexdigest() signature = base64.b64encode(hmac1.encode()) #Construct headers auth = 'LMv1 ' + AccessId + ':' + signature.decode() + ':' + epoch headers = {'Content-Type':'application/json','Authorization':auth} #Make request response = requests.get(url, data=data, headers=headers) #Print status and body of response print('Response Status:',response.status_code) print('Response Body:',response.content)
Returns a list of devices associated with a datasource
URI: /setting/datasources/{id}/devices
Where {id} should be replaced with the datasource id.
By default, 50 devices will be returned. You can include sort, filter, fields, size, and offset parameters to control what data is included in the response and how it is formatted.
#!/bin/env python import requests import json import hashlib import base64 import time import hmac #Account Info AccessId ='ACCESS_ID' AccessKey ='ACCESS_KEY' Company = 'COMPANY_NAME' #Request Info httpVerb ='GET' resourcePath = '/setting/datasources/247527051/devices' queryParams = '' data ='' #Construct URL url = 'https://'+ Company +'.logicmonitor.com/santaba/rest' + resourcePath + queryParams #Get current time in milliseconds epoch = str(int(time.time() * 1000)) #Concatenate Request details requestVars = httpVerb + epoch + data + resourcePath #Construct signature hmac1 = hmac.new(AccessKey.encode(),msg=requestVars.encode(),digestmod=hashlib.sha256).hexdigest() signature = base64.b64encode(hmac1.encode()) #Construct headers auth = 'LMv1 ' + AccessId + ':' + signature.decode() + ':' + epoch headers = {'Content-Type':'application/json','Authorization':auth} #Make request response = requests.get(url, data=data, headers=headers) #Print status and body of response print('Response Status:',response.status_code) print('Response Body:',response.content)
