REST API - Devices associated with DataSources
I'm currently working on a project to validate any configured LM alerts have an associated documentation - our documentation should have the datasource name as part of the title. Furthermore, I need to filter out devices that are not in my team's escalation path/rule. e.x. filter out "dev" environment devices.
- I'm pulling a list of datasources using the REST API '/setting/datasources' endpoint.
- I use a filter to only grab those that match my team's given escalation path/rule.
- I then pull the datasource properties, specifically the "appliesTo" value in the json response.
- I'm then converting those values into filters that can be used on the 'getDevices' REST API endpoint
Is there an easier and/or better way to match datasources back to devices? The 'appliesTo' values returned do not use the same structure and naming convention used with the 'getDevices' filters.
There is, actually! There is a sub-resource of the datasources resource for associated devices: /setting/datasources/{id}/devices. I've added it to the documentation here: https://www.logicmonitor.com/support/rest-api-developers-guide/datasources/get-datasources/
