I've had a couple of stabs at doing exactly this recently.

I ended up actually doing it outside of LogicMonitor, with a script that runs each night to query the LM API for Cisco devices, then push that info back into properties on each device in the LM API.

I did also do something similar as a Property Source, but felt it was quite inefficient as it would have to query the API individually for each device.  Although maybe this is a good use case for using collector cache.

I might be able to share something. What are you after? Properties with the info on a device? Or a datasource to alert on something?

I usually have a single collector that I have access to on which I increase the timeout for scripts... and use it for this type of effort, mostly RestAPI calls to be able to perform more complex jobs.  PropSources are also my preferred weapon for these tasks.
