Getting Datasource Details

Product Documentation

You can use LogicMonitor REST API v3 to get datasource details. You must authenticate yourself before making the API request.

Common Query Parameters

The following query parameters are common to all GET requests for Datasources APIs.

Parameter	Type	Description
`fields`	String	The response is filtered to include only the specified fields for each object. You can provide a list of properties separated by a comma. Example – `/setting/datasources?fields=name,id`
`size`	Integer	Indicates the number of results to display. A maximum of 1000 results can be requested in a GET request. By default, a list of 50 DataSources is returned if a value is not provided for this parameter. Example – `/setting/datasources?size=5`
`offset`	Integer	Indicates the number of results to offset the displayed result. Example – `/setting/datasources?offset=2`
`filter`	String	The response is filtered according to the operator and specified value that is, `filter=property:value` Use an asterisk (*) to match more than one character Use a dot (.) character to filter values within an object (example – `custom properties`) Use a comma (,) to separate multiple filters Operators include: Greater than or equals >: Less than or equals <: Greater than > Less than < Equals : Does not equal !: Includes ~ Does not include !~ Example – `/setting/datasources?filter=name:QAservice`

Getting Devices Associated with Datasource

URI: GET /setting/datasources/{id}/devices

The query parameters fields, size, offset, and filter should also be included while making the request GET /setting/datasources/{id}/devices. For details, see the common query parameters table.

An additional parameter id which is specific to GET /setting/datasources/{id}/devices is described in the following table.

Parameter	Type	Description
`id`	Integer	(Mandatory) It is the datasource ID whose list of associated devices you want to get.

Example

The following Python script requests devices for the datasource ID 247527051.

#!/bin/env python
 
import requests
import json
import hashlib
import base64
import time
import hmac
import getpass
 
#Account Info: LogicMonitor recommends to NEVER hardcode the credentials. Instead, retrieve the values from a secure storage.
#Note: The below is provided for illustration purposes only.
AccessId = getpass.getpass("Enter your AccessId: ")
AccessKey = getpass.getpass("Enter your AccessKey: ")
Company = 'apiAccount'
 
#Request Info
httpVerb ='GET'
resourcePath = '/setting/datasources/247527051/devices'
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
digest = hmac.new(
        AccessKey.encode('utf-8'),
        msg=requestVars.encode('utf-8'),
        digestmod=hashlib.sha256).hexdigest()
signature = base64.b64encode(digest.encode('utf-8')).decode('utf-8')
 
#Construct headers
auth = 'LMv1 ' + AccessId + ':' + str(signature) + ':' + epoch
headers = {'Content-Type':'application/json','Authorization':auth,'X-Version':'3'}
 
#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)
