Get Instance-level Thresholds

Last updated on 26 February, 2021

You can use LogicMonitor’s REST API to view instance level thresholds for a particular datasource.

Note: As with all of our API calls, authentication is required.

HTTP Method: GET

URI: /device/devices/{deviceId}/devicedatasources/{deviceDatasourceId}/instances/{instanceId}/alertsettings

Where:

  • {deviceId} is the id of the device you’d like to see thresholds for.  You can get group Ids from a GET request to the devices resource.
  • {deviceDatasourceId} is the id of the device datasource you’d like to see thresholds for.  You can get this Id by making a GET request to the device datasources resource
  • {instanceId} is the id of the instance you’d like to see thresholds for.  You can get this id by making a GET request to the instances resource

Request Parameters: You can include a fields parameter in your request to control what data is included in the response and how it is formatted:

Property

Syntax

Description

Example URI
fields fields={list of properties separated by commas} Filters the response to only include the following fields for each object /device/devices/9/devicedatasources/24/instances/10009/alertsettings?fields=dataPointName,alertExpr,disableAlerting

Example

The following Python script will return the thresholds for datapoints associated with device 56, device datasource 3320, instance 1469:

#Get current time in milliseconds

#Concatenate Request details

#Construct signature
hmac1 = hmac.new(AccessKey.encode(),msg=requestVars.encode(),digestmod=hashlib.sha256).hexdigest()

#Construct headers

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)
