Get Users
Last updated on 28 June, 2022You can use LogicMonitor’s REST API to programmatically get information about users to your account. You can use the users resource to:
Note: As with all our API resources, authentication is required.
Get information about all users in an account
HTTP Method:GET
URI: /setting/admins
Request Parameters:By default, a list of 50 users will be returned. You can include sort, filter, fields, size, and offset parameters that control what data is included in the response and how it is formatted. Note that query parameters are not considered part of the resource path, and should not be included the calculation of the LMv1 authentication signature.
| Property | Syntax | Description | Example URI |
| sort | sort={+ or -}property | Sorts the response by the property specified in either increasing (+) or decreasing (-) order | /setting/admins?sort=-id |
| filter | filter=property{operator}value | Filters the response according to the operator and value specified. Note that you can use * to match on more than one character.You can use the ‘.’ character to filter values within an object (e.g. custom properties), and multiple filters can be separated by a comma.
Operators include:
|
/setting/admins?filter=username:sarah |
| fields | fields=list of properties separated by commas | Filters the response to only include the following fields for each object | /setting/admins?fields=id,username |
| size | size=integer | The number of results to display. Max is 1000 | /setting/admins?size=10 |
| offset | offset=integer | The number of results to offset the displayed results by | /setting/admins?offset=20 |
Example
The following Python script gets all users in the account api.logicmonitor.com:
#!/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/admins'
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)Get information about a particular user
HTTP Method: GET
Resource URI: /setting/admins/{adminID}
Where adminID is the id of the user you’d like to get information about.
Example
The following Python script gets information about user 32 in account api.logicmonitor.com:
#!/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/admins/32'
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)
