Add OpsNotes

Overview

You can use LogicMonitor’s REST API to programmatically add ops notes to your account. As with all of our API calls, authentication is required.

Request Information

HTTP Method: POST

URI: /setting/opsnotes

Request Parameters: You can POST the following properties for all new ops notes.

Property Description Required? Type Example
note The note message Yes String “note”:”software update from 1.0.0 to 1.2.4″
happenedOnInSec The date and time associated with the note, in epoch seconds format No. Defaults to current time Integer “happenOnInSec”:1488826440
scopes The scopes associated with the note. A note with no scope will show up for everything in the account. Each scope object should have a type (device, service, deviceGroup, serviceGroup). For group scopes, a groupId should be specified. For device/service scopes, deviceId/serviceId should be specified & groupId can optionally be included. No. Defaults to no scope JSON Object “scopes”:[{“type”:”device”,”deviceId”:56},{“type”:”service”,”serviceId”:87,”groupId”:74}]
tags The tags that should be associated with the note. Each tag has a unique id and a name – you can either include the name of a new or existing tag, or the id of an existing tag. No. Defaults to no tags JSON Object “tags”:[{“name”:”release”},{“name”:”upgrade”}]

Example

The following Python script adds an Ops Note to account api.logicmonitor.com, with note “deploy version 3.4.5” and tag “reporting” to the device with id 530.
