Get Website Data
Last updated on 18 November, 2020Overview
You can use LogicMonitor’s REST API to get data for the websites in your account. As with all of our API calls, authentication is required.
Resource Information
HTTP Method: GET
URI: /service/services/{serviceID}/checkpoints/{checkpointID}/data
(where serviceID is the service id, which can be obtained via the Services Resource; checkpointID is the id of the service checkpoint you’d like to obtain data for, which can be obtained from the checkpoints object in the service definition (make a GET request to get details for a particular service.)
Request Parameters: By default, data will be returned for the last hour. You can include the following query parameters in your request to control what data is included in the response.
| Property | Description | Required? |
| start | The start time to return data for, in epoch milliseconds | No – the last hour of data will be returned by default |
| end | The end time to return data for, in epoch milliseconds | No – defaults to last hour of data |
| datapoints | The metrics that data should be returned for | No – defaults to all |
| format | The format to return data in, where options are csv and json | No – defaults to json |
Example
The following Python script gets data from 1482865561 to 1482865719 for service 58, checkpoint 294.

#Construct URL

#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()
# 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)
