Hello,I'm having troubles having a python script to work properly.I manage to have my webcheck created. But it always comes with no collector/checkpoint.Looking at the API sdk documentation doesn't really help me figure what I'm doing wrong.I tried doing a GET on existing webchecks, to copy/paste the following blocks: test_location, Checkpoints, Collectors.Here is a sample of my script:(the collector name is: "domain\\servername")I grabbed these blocks from the getwebsitelist output: Here is the API output when I try to create the webcheck:{'alert_expr': '', 'checkpoints': [{'geo_info': 'Overall', 'id': randomNumber, 'smg_id': 0}], 'collectors': [], 'description': 'Test API by Damien', 'disable_alerting': True, 'domain': 'Valid_website_url', 'global_sm_alert_cond': 0, 'group_id': 321, 'id': 4701, 'ignore_ssl': True, 'individual_alert_level': 'warn', 'individual_sm_alert_enable': False, 'is_internal': True, 'last_updated': 1732304976, 'name': 'testDamien', 'overall_alert_level': 'warn', 'page_load_alert_time_in_ms': 30000, 'polling_interval': 5, 'properties': [], 'role_privileges': [], 'schema': 'http', 'status': 'dead-collector', 'steps': [{'auth': None, 'description': '', 'enable': True, 'follow_redirection': True, 'fullpage_load': False, 'http_body': '', 'http_headers': '', 'http_method': 'GET', 'http_version': '1.1', 'invert_match': False, 'keyword': 'Alive', 'label': '', 'match_type': 'plain', 'name': '__step0', 'path': '', 'post_data_edit_type': None, 'req_script': '', 'req_type': 'config', 'require_auth': False, 'resp_script': '', 'resp_type': 'config', 'schema': 'http', 'status_code': '', 'timeout': 30, 'type': 'script', 'url': '', 'use_default_root': True}], 'stop_monitoring': False, 'stop_monitoring_by_folder': False, 'template': None, 'test_location': {'all': True, 'collector_ids': [], 'collectors': [], 'smg_ids': []}, 'transition': 5, 'trigger_ssl_expiration_alert': False, 'trigger_ssl_status_alert': False, 'type': 'webcheck', 'use_default_alert_setting': False, 'use_default_location_setting': False, 'user_permission': 'write'}And how it looks in the portal: Anyone has any idea of what I may be missing ?Thanks in advance.
