# <a id="icinga2-api"></a> Icinga 2 API
|
|
|
|
## <a id="icinga2-api-setup"></a> Setting up the API
|
|
|
|
You can run the CLI command `icinga2 api setup` to enable the
|
|
`api` [feature](8-cli-commands.md#enable-features) and set up
|
|
certificates as well as a new API user `root` with an auto-generated password in the
|
|
`/etc/icinga2/conf.d/api-users.conf` configuration file:
|
|
|
|
# icinga2 api setup
|
|
|
|
Make sure to restart Icinga 2 to enable the changes you just made:
|
|
|
|
# service icinga2 restart
|
|
|
|
If you prefer to set up the API manually, you will have to perform the following steps:
|
|
|
|
* Set up X.509 certificates for Icinga 2
|
|
* Enable the `api` feature (`icinga2 feature enable api`)
|
|
* Create an `ApiUser` object for authentication
|
|
|
|
The next chapter provides a quick overview of how you can use the API.
|
|
|
|
## <a id="icinga2-api-introduction"></a> Introduction
|
|
|
|
The Icinga 2 API allows you to manage configuration objects
|
|
and resources in a simple, programmatic way using HTTP requests.
|
|
|
|
The URL endpoints are logically separated allowing you to easily
|
|
make calls to
|
|
|
|
* query, create, modify and delete [config objects](9-icinga2-api.md#icinga2-api-config-objects)
|
|
* perform [actions](9-icinga2-api.md#icinga2-api-actions) (reschedule checks, etc.)
|
|
* subscribe to [event streams](9-icinga2-api.md#icinga2-api-event-streams)
|
|
* [manage configuration packages](9-icinga2-api.md#icinga2-api-config-management)
|
|
* evaluate [script expressions](9-icinga2-api.md#icinga2-api-console)
|
|
|
|
### <a id="icinga2-api-requests"></a> Requests
|
|
|
|
Any tool capable of making HTTP requests can communicate with
|
|
the API, for example [curl](http://curl.haxx.se).
|
|
|
|
Requests are only allowed to use the HTTPS protocol so that
|
|
traffic remains encrypted.
|
|
|
|
By default the Icinga 2 API listens on port `5665` which is shared with
|
|
the cluster stack. The port can be changed by setting the `bind_port` attribute
|
|
for the [ApiListener](6-object-types.md#objecttype-apilistener)
|
|
object in the `/etc/icinga2/features-available/api.conf`
|
|
configuration file.
|
|
|
|
Supported request methods:
|
|
|
|
Method | Usage
|
|
-------|--------
|
|
GET | Retrieve information about configuration objects. Any request using the GET method is read-only and does not affect any objects.
|
|
POST | Update attributes of a specified configuration object.
|
|
PUT | Create a new object. The PUT request must include all attributes required to create a new object.
|
|
DELETE | Remove an object created by the API. The DELETE method is idempotent and does not require any check if the object actually exists.
|
|
|
|
All requests apart from `GET` require that the following `Accept` header is set:
|
|
|
|
Accept: application/json
|
|
|
|
Each URL is prefixed with the API version (currently "/v1").
|
|
|
|
### <a id="icinga2-api-responses"></a> Responses
|
|
|
|
Successful requests will send back a response body containing a `results`
|
|
list. Depending on the number of affected objects in your request, the
|
|
`results` list may contain more than one entry.
|
|
|
|
The output will be sent back as a JSON object:
|
|
|
|
|
|
{
|
|
"results": [
|
|
{
|
|
"code": 200.0,
|
|
"status": "Object was created."
|
|
}
|
|
]
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
> **Note**
|
|
>
|
|
> Future versions of Icinga 2 might set additional fields. Your application
|
|
> should gracefully handle fields it is not familiar with, for example by
|
|
> ignoring them.
|
|
|
|
### <a id="icinga2-api-http-statuses"></a> HTTP Statuses
|
|
|
|
The API will return standard [HTTP statuses](https://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2616.txt)
|
|
including error codes.
|
|
|
|
When an error occurs, the response body will contain additional information
|
|
about the problem and its source.
|
|
|
|
A status code between 200 and 299 generally means that the request was
|
|
successful.
|
|
|
|
Return codes within the 400 range indicate that there was a problem with the
|
|
request. Either you did not authenticate correctly, you are missing the authorization
|
|
for your requested action, the requested object does not exist or the request
|
|
was malformed.
|
|
|
|
A status in the range of 500 generally means that there was a server-side problem
|
|
and Icinga 2 is unable to process your request.
|
|
|
|
### <a id="icinga2-api-authentication"></a> Authentication
|
|
|
|
There are two different ways for authenticating against the Icinga 2 API:
|
|
|
|
* username and password using HTTP basic auth
|
|
* X.509 certificate
|
|
|
|
In order to configure a new API user you'll need to add a new [ApiUser](6-object-types.md#objecttype-apiuser)
|
|
configuration object. In this example `root` will be the basic auth username
|
|
and the `password` attribute contains the basic auth password.
|
|
|
|
# vim /etc/icinga2/conf.d/api-users.conf
|
|
|
|
object ApiUser "root" {
|
|
password = "icinga"
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
Alternatively you can use X.509 client certificates by specifying the `client_cn`
|
|
the API should trust. The X.509 certificate has to be signed by the CA certificate
|
|
that is configured in the [ApiListener](6-object-types.md#objecttype-apilistener) object.
|
|
|
|
# vim /etc/icinga2/conf.d/api-users.conf
|
|
|
|
object ApiUser "root" {
|
|
client_cn = "CertificateCommonName"
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
An `ApiUser` object can have both authentication methods configured.
|
|
|
|
You can test authentication by sending a GET request to the API:
|
|
|
|
$ curl -k -s -u root:icinga 'https://localhost:5665/v1'
|
|
|
|
In case you get an error message make sure to check the API user credentials.
|
|
|
|
When using client certificates for authentication you'll need to pass your client certificate
|
|
and private key to the curl call:
|
|
|
|
$ curl -k --cert example.localdomain.crt --key example.localdomain.key 'https://example.localdomain:5665/v1/status'
|
|
|
|
In case of an error make sure to verify the client certificate and CA.
|
|
|
|
The curl parameter `-k` disables certificate verification and should therefore
|
|
only be used for testing. In order to securely check each connection you'll need to
|
|
specify the trusted CA certificate using the curl parameter`--cacert`:
|
|
|
|
$ curl -u root:icinga --cacert ca.crt 'icinga2.node1.localdomain:5665/v1'
|
|
|
|
Read the next chapter on [API permissions](9-icinga2-api.md#icinga2-api-permissions)
|
|
in order to configure authorization settings for your newly created API user.
|
|
|
|
### <a id="icinga2-api-permissions"></a> Permissions
|
|
|
|
By default an API user does not have any permissions to perform
|
|
actions on the URL endpoints.
|
|
|
|
Permissions for API users must be specified in the `permissions` attribute
|
|
as array. The array items can be a list of permission strings with wildcard
|
|
matches.
|
|
|
|
Example for an API user with all permissions:
|
|
|
|
permissions = [ "*" ]
|
|
|
|
Note that you can use wildcards. Here's another example that only allows the user
|
|
to perform read-only object queries for hosts and services:
|
|
|
|
permissions = [ "objects/query/Host", "objects/query/Service" ]
|
|
|
|
You can also further restrict permissions by specifying a filter expression. The
|
|
filter expression has to be a [lambda function](18-language-reference.md#nullary-lambdas)
|
|
which must return a boolean value.
|
|
|
|
The following example allows the API user to query all hosts and services which have a
|
|
custom attribute `os` that matches the regular expression `^Linux`.
|
|
|
|
permissions = [
|
|
{
|
|
permission = "objects/query/Host"
|
|
filter = {{ regex("^Linux", host.vars.os) }}
|
|
},
|
|
{
|
|
permission = "objects/query/Service"
|
|
filter = {{ regex("^Linux", service.vars.os) }}
|
|
}
|
|
]
|
|
|
|
More information about filters can be found in the [filters](9-icinga2-api.md#icinga2-api-filters) chapter.
|
|
|
|
Available permissions for specific URL endpoints:
|
|
|
|
Permissions | URL Endpoint | Supports Filters
|
|
------------------------------|---------------|-----------------
|
|
actions/<action> | /v1/actions | Yes
|
|
config/query | /v1/config | No
|
|
config/modify | /v1/config | No
|
|
objects/query/<type> | /v1/objects | Yes
|
|
objects/create/<type> | /v1/objects | No
|
|
objects/modify/<type> | /v1/objects | Yes
|
|
objects/delete/<type> | /v1/objects | Yes
|
|
status/query/<type> | /v1/status | Yes
|
|
events/<type> | /v1/events | No
|
|
console | /v1/console | No
|
|
|
|
The required actions or types can be replaced by using a wildcard match ("\*").
|
|
|
|
### <a id="icinga2-api-parameters"></a> Parameters
|
|
|
|
Depending on the request method there are two ways of
|
|
passing parameters to the request:
|
|
|
|
* JSON object as request body (all request methods other than `GET`)
|
|
* Query string as URL parameter (all request methods)
|
|
|
|
Reserved characters by the HTTP protocol must be [URL-encoded](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Percent-encoding)
|
|
as query string, e.g. a space character becomes `%20`.
|
|
|
|
Example for a URL-encoded query string:
|
|
|
|
/v1/objects/hosts?filter=match(%22example.localdomain*%22,host.name)&attrs=host.name&attrs=host.state
|
|
|
|
Here are the exact same query parameters as a JSON object:
|
|
|
|
{ "filter": "match(\"example.localdomain*\",host.name)", "attrs": [ "host.name", "host.state" ] }
|
|
|
|
### <a id="icinga2-api-requests-method-override"></a> Request Method Override
|
|
|
|
`GET` requests do not allow you to send a request body. In case you cannot pass everything as URL parameters (e.g. complex filters or JSON-encoded dictionaries) you can use the `X-HTTP-Method-Override` header. This comes in handy when you are using HTTP proxies disallowing `PUT` or `DELETE` requests too.
|
|
|
|
Query an existing object by sending a `POST` request with `X-HTTP-Method-Override: GET` as request header:
|
|
|
|
$ curl -k -s -u 'root:icinga' -H 'X-HTTP-Method-Override: GET' -X POST 'https://localhost:5665/v1/objects/hosts'
|
|
|
|
Delete an existing object by sending a `POST` request with `X-HTTP-Method-Override: DELETE` as request header:
|
|
|
|
$ curl -k -s -u 'root:icinga' -H 'X-HTTP-Method-Override: DELETE' -X POST 'https://localhost:5665/v1/objects/hosts/example.localdomain'
|
|
|
|
### <a id="icinga2-api-filters"></a> Filters
|
|
|
|
#### <a id="icinga2-api-simple-filters"></a> Simple Filters
|
|
|
|
By default actions and queries operate on all objects unless further restricted by the user. For
|
|
example, the following query returns all `Host` objects:
|
|
|
|
https://localhost:5665/v1/objects/hosts
|
|
|
|
If you're only interested in a single object, you can limit the output to that object by specifying its name:
|
|
|
|
https://localhost:5665/v1/objects/hosts?host=localhost
|
|
|
|
**The name of the URL parameter is the lower-case version of the type the query applies to.** For
|
|
example, for `Host` objects the URL parameter therefore is `host`, for `Service` objects it is
|
|
`service` and so on.
|
|
|
|
You can also specify multiple objects:
|
|
|
|
https://localhost:5665/v1/objects/hosts?hosts=first-host&hosts=second-host
|
|
|
|
Again -- like in the previous example -- the name of the URL parameter is the lower-case version of the type. However, because we're specifying multiple objects here the **plural form** of the type is used.
|
|
|
|
When specifying names for objects which have composite names like for example services the
|
|
full name has to be used:
|
|
|
|
https://localhost:5665/v1/objects/services?service=localhost!ping6
|
|
|
|
The full name of an object can be obtained by looking at the `__name` attribute.
|
|
|
|
#### <a id="icinga2-api-advanced-filters"></a> Advanced Filters
|
|
|
|
Most of the information provided in this chapter applies to both permission filters (as used when
|
|
configuring `ApiUser` objects) and filters specified in queries.
|
|
|
|
Advanced filters allow users to filter objects using lambda expressions. The syntax for these filters is the same like for [apply rule expressions](3-monitoring-basics.md#using-apply-expressions).
|
|
|
|
> **Note**
|
|
>
|
|
> Filters used as URL parameter must be URL-encoded. The following examples
|
|
> are **not URL-encoded** for better readability.
|
|
|
|
Example matching all services in NOT-OK state:
|
|
|
|
https://localhost:5665/v1/objects/services?filter=service.state!=ServiceOK
|
|
|
|
Example matching all hosts by name:
|
|
|
|
https://localhost:5665/v1/objects/hosts?filter=match("example.localdomain*",host.name)
|
|
|
|
Example for all hosts which are in the host group `linux-servers`:
|
|
|
|
https://localhost:5665/v1/objects/hosts?filter="linux-servers" in host.groups
|
|
|
|
User-specified filters are run in a sandbox environment which ensures that filters cannot
|
|
modify Icinga's state, for example object attributes or global variables.
|
|
|
|
When querying objects of a specific type the filter expression is evaluated for each object
|
|
of that type. The object is made available to the filter expression as a variable whose name
|
|
is the lower-case version of the object's type name.
|
|
|
|
For example when querying objects of type `Host` the variable in the filter expression is named
|
|
`host`. Additionally related objects such as the host's check command are also made available
|
|
(e.g., via the `check_command` variable). The variable names are the exact same as for the `joins`
|
|
query parameter; see [object query joins](9-icinga2-api.md#icinga2-api-config-objects-query-joins)
|
|
for details.
|
|
|
|
The object is also made available via the `obj` variable. This makes it easier to build
|
|
filters which can be used for more than one object type (e.g., for permissions).
|
|
|
|
Some queries can be performed for more than just one object type. One example is the 'reschedule-check'
|
|
action which can be used for both hosts and services. When using advanced filters you will also have to specify the
|
|
type using the `type` parameter:
|
|
|
|
$ curl -k -s -u root:icinga -H 'Accept: application/json' -X POST 'https://localhost:5665/v1/actions/reschedule-check' \
|
|
-d '{ "type": "Service", "filter": "service.name==\"ping6\"" }' | python -m json.tool
|
|
|
|
When building filters you have to ensure that values such as
|
|
`"linux-servers"` are escaped properly according to the rules of the Icinga 2 configuration
|
|
language.
|
|
|
|
To make using the API in scripts easier you can use the `filter_vars` attribute to specify
|
|
variables which should be made available to your filter expression. This way you don't have
|
|
to worry about escaping values:
|
|
|
|
$ curl -k -s -u 'root:icinga' -H 'X-HTTP-Method-Override: GET' -X POST 'https://localhost:5665/v1/objects/hosts' \
|
|
-d '{ "filter": "host.vars.os == os", "filter_vars": { "os": "Linux" } }'
|
|
|
|
We're using X-HTTP-Method-Override here because the HTTP specification does
|
|
not allow message bodies for GET requests.
|
|
|
|
The `filters_vars` attribute can only be used inside the request body, but not as
|
|
a URL parameter because there is no way to specify a dictionary in a URL.
|
|
|
|
## <a id="icinga2-api-config-objects"></a> Config Objects
|
|
|
|
Provides methods to manage configuration objects:
|
|
|
|
* [creating objects](9-icinga2-api.md#icinga2-api-config-objects-create)
|
|
* [querying objects](9-icinga2-api.md#icinga2-api-config-objects-query)
|
|
* [modifying objects](9-icinga2-api.md#icinga2-api-config-objects-modify)
|
|
* [deleting objects](9-icinga2-api.md#icinga2-api-config-objects-delete)
|
|
|
|
### <a id="icinga2-api-config-objects-cluster-sync"></a> API Objects and Cluster Config Sync
|
|
|
|
Newly created or updated objects can be synced throughout your
|
|
Icinga 2 cluster. Set the `zone` attribute to the zone this object
|
|
belongs to and let the API and cluster handle the rest.
|
|
|
|
Objects without a zone attribute are only synced in the same zone the Icinga instance belongs to.
|
|
|
|
> **Note**
|
|
>
|
|
> Cluster nodes must accept configuration for creating, modifying
|
|
> and deleting objects. Ensure that `accept_config` is set to `true`
|
|
> in the [ApiListener](6-object-types.md#objecttype-apilistener) object
|
|
> on each node.
|
|
|
|
If you add a new cluster instance, or reconnect an instance which has been offline
|
|
for a while, Icinga 2 takes care of the initial object sync for all objects
|
|
created by the API.
|
|
|
|
### <a id="icinga2-api-config-objects-query"></a> Querying Objects
|
|
|
|
You can request information about configuration objects by sending
|
|
a `GET` query to the `/v1/objects/<type>` URL endpoint. `<type` has
|
|
to be replaced with the plural name of the object type you are interested
|
|
in:
|
|
|
|
$ curl -k -s -u root:icinga 'https://localhost:5665/v1/objects/hosts'
|
|
|
|
A list of all available configuration types is available in the
|
|
[object types](6-object-types.md#object-types) chapter.
|
|
|
|
The following URL parameters are available:
|
|
|
|
Parameters | Type | Description
|
|
-----------|--------------|----------------------------
|
|
attrs | string array | **Optional.** Limits attributes in the output.
|
|
joins | string array | **Optional.** Join related object types and their attributes (`?joins=host` for the entire set, or selectively by `?joins=host.name`).
|
|
meta | string array | **Optional.** Enable meta information using `?meta=used_by`. Defaults to disabled.
|
|
|
|
In addition to these parameters a [filter](9-icinga2-api.md#icinga2-api-filters) may be provided.
|
|
|
|
Instead of using a filter you can optionally specify the object name in the
|
|
URL path when querying a single object. For objects with composite names
|
|
(e.g. services) the full name (e.g. `localhost!http`) must be specified:
|
|
|
|
$ curl -k -s -u root:icinga 'https://localhost:5665/v1/objects/services/localhost!http'
|
|
|
|
You can limit the output to specific attributes using the `attrs` URL parameter:
|
|
|
|
$ curl -k -s -u root:icinga 'https://localhost:5665/v1/objects/hosts/example.localdomain?attrs=name&attrs=address' | python -m json.tool
|
|
{
|
|
"results": [
|
|
{
|
|
"attrs": {
|
|
"name": "example.localdomain"
|
|
"address": "192.168.1.1"
|
|
},
|
|
"joins": {},
|
|
"meta": {},
|
|
"name": "example.localdomain",
|
|
"type": "Host"
|
|
}
|
|
]
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
#### <a id="icinga2-api-config-objects-query-result"></a> Object Queries Result
|
|
|
|
Each response entry in the results array contains the following attributes:
|
|
|
|
Attribute | Type | Description
|
|
-----------|------------|--------------
|
|
name | string | Full object name.
|
|
type | string | Object type.
|
|
attrs | dictionary | Object attributes (can be filtered using the URL parameter `attrs`).
|
|
joins | dictionary | [Joined object types](9-icinga2-api.md#icinga2-api-config-objects-query-joins) as key, attributes as nested dictionary. Disabled by default.
|
|
meta | dictionary | Contains `used_by` object references. Disabled by default, enable it using `?meta=used_by` as URL parameter.
|
|
|
|
#### <a id="icinga2-api-config-objects-query-joins"></a> Object Query Joins
|
|
|
|
Icinga 2 knows about object relations. For example it can optionally return
|
|
information about the host when querying service objects.
|
|
|
|
The following query retrieves all host attributes:
|
|
|
|
https://localhost:5665/v1/objects/services?joins=host
|
|
|
|
Instead of requesting all host attributes you can also limit the output to specific
|
|
attributes:
|
|
|
|
https://localhost:5665/v1/objects/services?joins=host.name&joins=host.address
|
|
|
|
You can request that all available joins are returned in the result set by using
|
|
the `all_joins` query parameter.
|
|
|
|
https://localhost:5665/v1/objects/services?all_joins=1
|
|
|
|
> **Note**
|
|
>
|
|
> For performance reasons you should only request attributes which your application
|
|
> requires.
|
|
|
|
The following joins are available:
|
|
|
|
Object Type | Object Relations (`joins` prefix name)
|
|
-------------|------------------------------------------
|
|
Service | host, check\_command, check\_period, event\_command, command\_endpoint
|
|
Host | check\_command, check\_period, event\_command, command\_endpoint
|
|
Notification | host, service, command, period
|
|
Dependency | child\_host, child\_service, parent\_host, parent\_service, period
|
|
User | period
|
|
Zones | parent
|
|
|
|
Here's an example that retrieves all service objects for hosts which have had their `os`
|
|
custom attribute set to `Linux`. The result set contains the `display_name` and `check_command`
|
|
attributes for the service. The query also returns the host's `name` and `address` attribute
|
|
via a join:
|
|
|
|
$ curl -k -s -u root:icinga 'https://localhost:5665/v1/objects/services?attrs=display_name&attrs=check_command&joins=host.name&joins=host.address&filter=host.vars.os==%22Linux%22' | python -m json.tool
|
|
|
|
{
|
|
"results": [
|
|
{
|
|
"attrs": {
|
|
"check_command": "ping4",
|
|
"display_name": "ping4"
|
|
},
|
|
"joins": {
|
|
"host": {
|
|
"address": "192.168.1.1",
|
|
"name": "example.localdomain"
|
|
}
|
|
},
|
|
"meta": {},
|
|
"name": "example.localdomain!ping4",
|
|
"type": "Service"
|
|
},
|
|
{
|
|
"attrs": {
|
|
"check_command": "ssh",
|
|
"display_name": "ssh"
|
|
},
|
|
"joins": {
|
|
"host": {
|
|
"address": "192.168.1.1",
|

"name": "example.localdomain"
|
|
}
|
|
},
|
|
"meta": {},
|
|
"name": "example.localdomain!ssh",
|
|
"type": "Service"
|
|
}
|
|
]
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
In case you want to fetch all [comments](6-object-types.md#objecttype-comment)
|
|
for hosts and services, you can use the following query URL (similar example
|
|
for downtimes):
|
|
|
|
https://localhost:5665/v1/objects/comments?joins=host&joins=service
|
|
|
|
### <a id="icinga2-api-config-objects-create"></a> Creating Config Objects
|
|
|
|
New objects must be created by sending a PUT request. The following
|
|
parameters need to be passed inside the JSON body:
|
|
|
|
Parameters | Type | Description
|
|
-----------|--------------|--------------------------
|
|
templates | string array | **Optional.** Import existing configuration templates for this object type.
|
|
attrs | dictionary | **Required.** Set specific object attributes for this [object type](6-object-types.md#object-types).
|
|
|
|
The object name must be specified as part of the URL path. For objects with composite names (e.g. services)
|
|
the full name (e.g. `localhost!http`) must be specified.
|
|
|
|
If attributes are of the Dictionary type, you can also use the indexer format. This might be necessary to only override specific custom variables and keep all other existing custom variables (e.g. from templates):
|
|
|
|
"attrs": { "vars.os": "Linux" }
|
|
|
|
Example for creating the new host object `example.localdomain`:
|
|
|
|
$ curl -k -s -u root:icinga -H 'Accept: application/json' -X PUT 'https://localhost:5665/v1/objects/hosts/example.localdomain' \
|
|
-d '{ "templates": [ "generic-host" ], "attrs": { "address": "192.168.1.1", "check_command": "hostalive", "vars.os" : "Linux" } }' \
|
|
| python -m json.tool
|
|
{
|
|
"results": [
|
|
{
|
|
"code": 200.0,
|
|
"status": "Object was created."
|
|
}
|
|
]
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
If the configuration validation fails, the new object will not be created and the response body
|
|
contains a detailed error message. The following example is missing the `check_command` attribute
|
|
which is required for host objects:
|
|
|
|
$ curl -k -s -u root:icinga -H 'Accept: application/json' -X PUT 'https://localhost:5665/v1/objects/hosts/example.localdomain' \
|
|
-d '{ "attrs": { "address": "192.168.1.1", "vars.os" : "Linux" } }' \
|
|
| python -m json.tool
|
|
{
|
|
"results": [
|
|
{
|
|
"code": 500.0,
|
|
"errors": [
|
|
"Error: Validation failed for object 'example.localdomain' of type 'Host'; Attribute 'check_command': Attribute must not be empty."
|
|
],
|
|
"status": "Object could not be created."
|
|
}
|
|
]
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
Service objects must be created using their full name ("hostname!servicename") referencing an existing host object:
|
|
|
|
$ curl -k -s -u root:icinga -H 'Accept: application/json' -X PUT 'https://localhost:5665/v1/objects/services/localhost!realtime-load' \
|
|
-d '{ "templates": [ "generic-service" ], "attrs": { "check_command": "load", "check_interval": 1,"retry_interval": 1 } }'
|
|
|
|
|
|
Example for a new CheckCommand object:
|
|
|
|
$ curl -k -s -u root:icinga -H 'Accept: application/json' -X PUT 'https://localhost:5665/v1/objects/checkcommands/mytest' \
|
|
-d '{ "templates": [ "plugin-check-command" ], "attrs": { "command": [ "/usr/local/sbin/check_http" ], "arguments": { "-I": "$mytest_iparam$" } } }'
|
|
|
|
|
|
### <a id="icinga2-api-config-objects-modify"></a> Modifying Objects
|
|
|
|
Existing objects must be modified by sending a `POST` request. The following
|
|
parameters need to be passed inside the JSON body:
|
|
|
|
Parameters | Type | Description
|
|
-----------|------------|---------------------------
|
|
attrs | dictionary | **Required.** Set specific object attributes for this [object type](6-object-types.md#object-types).
|
|
|
|
In addition to these parameters a [filter](9-icinga2-api.md#icinga2-api-filters) should be provided.
|
|
|
|
If attributes are of the Dictionary type, you can also use the indexer format:
|
|
|
|
"attrs": { "vars.os": "Linux" }
|
|
|
|
The following example updates the `address` attribute and the custom attribute `os` for the `example.localdomain` host:
|
|
|
|
$ curl -k -s -u root:icinga -H 'Accept: application/json' -X POST 'https://localhost:5665/v1/objects/hosts/example.localdomain' \
|
|
-d '{ "attrs": { "address": "192.168.1.2", "vars.os" : "Windows" } }' \
|
|
| python -m json.tool
|
|
{
|
|
"results": [
|
|
{
|
|
"code": 200.0,
|
|
"name": "example.localdomain",
|
|
"status": "Attributes updated.",
|
|
"type": "Host"
|
|
}
|
|
]
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
|
|
### <a id="icinga2-api-config-objects-delete"></a> Deleting Objects
|
|
|
|
You can delete objects created using the API by sending a `DELETE`
|
|
request.
|
|
|
|
Parameters | Type | Description
|
|
-----------|---------|---------------
|
|
cascade | boolean | **Optional.** Delete objects depending on the deleted objects (e.g. services on a host).
|
|
|
|
In addition to these parameters a [filter](9-icinga2-api.md#icinga2-api-filters) should be provided.
|
|
|
|
Example for deleting the host object `example.localdomain`:
|
|
|
|
$ curl -k -s -u root:icinga -H 'Accept: application/json' -X DELETE 'https://localhost:5665/v1/objects/hosts/example.localdomain?cascade=1' | python -m json.tool
|
|
{
|
|
"results": [
|
|
{
|
|
"code": 200.0,
|
|
"name": "example.localdomain",
|
|
"status": "Object was deleted.",
|
|
"type": "Host"
|
|
}
|
|
]
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
## <a id="icinga2-api-config-templates"></a> Config Templates
|
|
|
|
Provides methods to manage configuration templates:
|
|
|
|
* [querying templates](9-icinga2-api.md#icinga2-api-config-templates-query)
|
|
|
|
### <a id="icinga2-api-config-templates-query"></a> Querying Templates
|
|
|
|
You can request information about configuration templates by sending
|
|
a `GET` query to the `/v1/templates/<type>` URL endpoint. `<type` has
|
|
to be replaced with the plural name of the object type you are interested
|
|
in:
|
|
|
|
$ curl -k -s -u root:icinga 'https://localhost:5665/v1/templates/hosts'
|
|
|
|
A list of all available configuration types is available in the
|
|
[object types](6-object-types.md#object-types) chapter.
|
|
|
|
A [filter](9-icinga2-api.md#icinga2-api-filters) may be provided for this query type. The
|
|
template object can be accessed in the filter using the `tmpl` variable:
|
|
|
|
$ curl -u root:root -k 'https://localhost:5661/v1/templates/hosts' -H "Accept: application/json" -X PUT -H "X-HTTP-Method-Override: GET" \
|
|
-d '{ "filter": "match(\"g*\", tmpl.name)" }'
|
|
|
|
Instead of using a filter you can optionally specify the template name in the
|
|
URL path when querying a single object:
|
|
|
|
$ curl -k -s -u root:icinga 'https://localhost:5665/v1/templates/hosts/generic-host'
|
|
|
|
The result set contains the type and name of the template.
|
|
|
|
## <a id="icinga2-api-variables"></a> Variables
|
|
|
|
Provides methods to manage global variables:
|
|
|
|
* [querying variables](9-icinga2-api.md#icinga2-api-variables-query)
|
|
|
|
### <a id="icinga2-api-variables-query"></a> Querying Variables
|
|
|
|
You can request information about global variables by sending
|
|
a `GET` query to the `/v1/variables/` URL endpoint:
|
|
|
|
$ curl -k -s -u root:icinga 'https://localhost:5665/v1/variables'
|
|
|
|
A [filter](9-icinga2-api.md#icinga2-api-filters) may be provided for this query type. The
|
|
variable information object can be accessed in the filter using the `variable` variable:
|
|
|
|
$ curl -u root:root -k 'https://localhost:5661/v1/variables' -H "Accept: application/json" -X PUT -H "X-HTTP-Method-Override: GET" \
|
|
-d '{ "filter": "variable.type in [ \"String\", \"Number\" ]" }'
|
|
|
|
Instead of using a filter you can optionally specify the variable name in the
|
|
URL path when querying a single variable:
|
|
|
|
$ curl -k -s -u root:icinga 'https://localhost:5665/v1/variables/PrefixDir'
|
|
|
|
The result set contains the type, name and value of the global variable.
|
|
|
|
## <a id="icinga2-api-actions"></a> Actions
|
|
|
|
There are several actions available for Icinga 2 provided by the `/v1/actions`
|
|
URL endpoint. You can run actions by sending a `POST` request.
|
|
|
|
In case you have been using the [external commands](15-features.md#external-commands)
|
|
in the past, the API actions provide a similar interface with filter
|
|
capabilities for some of the more common targets which do not directly change
|
|
the configuration.
|
|
|
|
All actions return a 200 `OK` or an appropriate error code for each
|
|
action performed on each object matching the supplied filter.
|
|
|
|
Actions which affect the Icinga Application itself such as disabling
|
|
notification on a program-wide basis must be applied by updating the
|
|
[IcingaApplication object](9-icinga2-api.md#icinga2-api-config-objects)
|
|
called `app`.
|
|
|
|
$ curl -k -s -u root:icinga -H 'Accept: application/json' -X POST 'https://localhost:5665/v1/objects/icingaapplications/app' -d '{ "attrs": { "enable_notifications": false } }'
|
|

|
|
being set.
|
|
|
|
Example for all downtime events:
|
|
|
|
&types=DowntimeAdded&types=DowntimeRemoved&types=DowntimeTriggered
|
|
|
|
|
|
### <a id="icinga2-api-event-streams-filter"></a> Event Stream Filter
|
|
|
|
Event streams can be filtered by attributes using the prefix `event.`.
|
|
|
|
Example for the `CheckResult` type with the `exit_code` set to `2`:
|
|
|
|
&types=CheckResult&filter=event.check_result.exit_status==2
|
|
|
|
Example for the `CheckResult` type with the service matching the string "random":
|
|
|
|
&types=CheckResult&filter=match%28%22random*%22,event.service%29
|
|
|
|
|
|
### <a id="icinga2-api-event-streams-response"></a> Event Stream Response
|
|
|
|
The event stream response is separated with new lines. The HTTP client
|
|
must support long-polling and HTTP/1.1. HTTP/1.0 is not supported.
|
|
|
|
Example:
|
|
|
|
$ curl -k -s -u root:icinga -H 'Accept: application/json' -X POST 'https://localhost:5665/v1/events?queue=michi&types=CheckResult&filter=event.check_result.exit_status==2'
|
|
|
|
{"check_result":{ ... },"host":"example.localdomain","service":"ping4","timestamp":1445421319.7226390839,"type":"CheckResult"}
|
|
{"check_result":{ ... },"host":"example.localdomain","service":"ping4","timestamp":1445421324.7226390839,"type":"CheckResult"}
|
|
{"check_result":{ ... },"host":"example.localdomain","service":"ping4","timestamp":1445421329.7226390839,"type":"CheckResult"}
|
|
|
|
|
|
## <a id="icinga2-api-status"></a> Status and Statistics
|
|
|
|
Send a `GET` request to the URL endpoint `/v1/status` to retrieve status information and statistics for Icinga 2.
|
|
|
|
Example:
|
|
|
|
$ curl -k -s -u root:icinga 'https://localhost:5665/v1/status' | python -m json.tool
|
|
{
|
|
"results": [
|
|
{
|
|
"name": "ApiListener",
|
|
"perfdata": [ ... ],
|
|
"status": [ ... ]
|
|
},
|
|
...
|
|
{
|
|
"name": "IcingaAplication",
|
|
"perfdata": [ ... ],
|
|
"status": [ ... ]
|
|
},
|
|
...
|
|
]
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
You can limit the output by specifying a status type in the URL, e.g. `IcingaApplication`:
|
|
|
|
$ curl -k -s -u root:icinga 'https://localhost:5665/v1/status/IcingaApplication' | python -m json.tool
|
|
{
|
|
"results": [
|
|
{
|
|
"perfdata": [],
|
|
"status": {
|
|
"icingaapplication": {
|
|
"app": {
|
|
"enable_event_handlers": true,
|
|
"enable_flapping": true,
|
|
"enable_host_checks": true,
|
|
"enable_notifications": true,
|
|
"enable_perfdata": true,
|
|
"enable_service_checks": true,
|
|
"node_name": "example.localdomain",
|

|
|
}
|
|
|
|
|
|
## <a id="icinga2-api-config-management"></a> Configuration Management
|
|
|
|
The main idea behind configuration management is to allow external applications
|
|
creating configuration packages and stages based on configuration files and
|
|
directory trees. This replaces any additional SSH connection and whatnot to
|
|
dump configuration files to Icinga 2 directly.
|
|
In case you are pushing a new configuration stage to a package, Icinga 2 will
|
|
validate the configuration asynchronously and populate a status log which
|
|
can be fetched in a separated request.
|
|
|
|
|
|
### <a id="icinga2-api-config-management-create-package"></a> Creating a Config Package
|
|
|
|
Send a `POST` request to a new config package called `example-cmdb` in this example. This
|
|
will create a new empty configuration package.
|
|
|
|
$ curl -k -s -u root:icinga -H 'Accept: application/json' -X POST \
|
|
'https://localhost:5665/v1/config/packages/example-cmdb' | python -m json.tool
|
|
{
|
|
"results": [
|
|
{
|
|
"code": 200.0,
|
|
"package": "example-cmdb",
|
|
"status": "Created package."
|
|
}
|
|
]
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
Package names starting with an underscore are reserved for internal packages and must not be used.
|
|
|
|
### <a id="icinga2-api-config-management-create-config-stage"></a> Uploading configuration for a Config Package
|
|
|
|
Configuration files in packages are managed in stages.
|
|
Stages provide a way to maintain multiple configuration versions for a package.
|
|
|
|
Send a `POST` request to the URL endpoint `/v1/config/stages` and add the name of an existing
|
|
configuration package to the URL path (e.g. `example-cmdb`).
|
|
The request body must contain the `files` attribute with the value being
|
|
a dictionary of file targets and their content.
|
|
|
|
The file path requires one of these two directories inside its path:
|
|
|
|
Directory | Description
|
|
------------|------------------------------------
|
|
conf.d | Local configuration directory.
|
|
zones.d | Configuration directory for cluster zones, each zone must be put into its own zone directory underneath. Supports the [cluster config sync](13-distributed-monitoring-ha.md#cluster-zone-config-sync).
|
|
|
|
Example for a local configuration in the `conf.d` directory:
|
|
|
|
"files": { "conf.d/host1.conf": "object Host \"local-host\" { address = \"127.0.0.1\", check_command = \"hostalive\" }" }
|
|
|
|
Example for a host configuration inside the `satellite` zone in the `zones.d` directory:
|
|
|
|
"files": { "zones.d/satellite/host2.conf": "object Host \"satellite-host\" { address = \"192.168.1.100\", check_command = \"hostalive\" }" }
|
|
|
|
|
|
The example below will create a new file called `test.conf` in the `conf.d`
|
|
directory. Note: This example contains an error (`chec_command`). This is
|
|
intentional.
|
|
|
|
$ curl -k -s -u root:icinga -H 'Accept: application/json' -X POST \
|
|
-d '{ "files": { "conf.d/test.conf": "object Host \"cmdb-host\" { chec_command = \"dummy\" }" } }' \
|
|
'https://localhost:5665/v1/config/stages/example-cmdb' | python -m json.tool
|
|
{
|
|
"results": [
|
|
{
|
|
"code": 200.0,
|
|
"package": "example-cmdb",
|
|
"stage": "example.localdomain-1441625839-0",
|
|
"status": "Created stage."
|
|
}
|
|
]
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
The Icinga 2 API returns the `package` name this stage was created for, and also
|
|
generates a unique name for the `stage` attribute you'll need for later requests.
|
|
|
|
Icinga 2 automatically restarts the daemon in order to activate the new config stage.
|
|
If the validation for the new config stage failed, the old stage and its configuration objects
|
|
will remain active.
|
|
|
|
> **Note**
|
|
>
|
|
> Old stages are not purged automatically. You can [remove stages](9-icinga2-api.md#) that are no longer in use.
|
|
|
|
Icinga 2 will create the following files in the configuration package
|
|
stage after configuration validation:
|
|
|
|
File | Description
|
|
------------|--------------
|
|
status | Contains the [configuration validation](8-cli-commands.md#config-validation) exit code (everything else than 0 indicates an error).
|
|
startup.log | Contains the [configuration validation](8-cli-commands.md#config-validation) output.
|
|
|
|
You can [fetch these files](9-icinga2-api.md#icinga2-api-config-management-fetch-config-package-stage-files)
|
|
in order to verify that the new configuration was deployed successfully.
|
|
|
|
|
|
### <a id="icinga2-api-config-management-list-config-packages"></a> List Configuration Packages and their Stages
|
|
|
|
A list of packages and their stages can be retrieved by sending a `GET` request to the URL endpoint `/v1/config/packages`.
|
|
|
|
The following example contains one configuration package `example-cmdb`. The package does not currently
|
|
have an active stage.
|
|
|
|
$ curl -k -s -u root:icinga 'https://localhost:5665/v1/config/packages' | python -m json.tool

|
### <a id="icinga2-api-config-management-list-config-package-stage-files"></a> List Configuration Packages and their Stages
|
|

### <a id="icinga2-api-config-management-fetch-config-package-stage-files"></a> Fetch Configuration Package Stage Files
|
|
|
|
Send a `GET` request to the URL endpoint `/v1/config/files` and add
|
|
the package name, the stage name and the relative path to the file to the URL path.
|
|
|
|
> **Note**
|
|
>
|
|
> The returned files are plain-text instead of JSON-encoded.
|
|
|
|
The following example fetches the configuration file `conf.d/test.conf`:
|
|
|
|
$ curl -k -s -u root:icinga 'https://localhost:5665/v1/config/files/example-cmdb/example.localdomain-1441625839-0/conf.d/test.conf'
|
|
|
|
object Host "cmdb-host" { chec_command = "dummy" }
|
|
|
|
You can fetch a [list of existing files](9-icinga2-api.md#icinga2-api-config-management-list-config-package-stage-files)
|
|
in a configuration stage and then specifically request their content.
|
|
|
|
### <a id="icinga2-api-config-management-config-package-stage-errors"></a> Configuration Package Stage Errors
|
|
|
|
Now that we don't have an active stage for `example-cmdb` yet seen [here](9-icinga2-api.md#icinga2-api-config-management-list-config-packages),
|
|
there must have been an error.
|
|
|
|
In order to check for validation errors you can fetch the `startup.log` file
|
|
by sending a `GET` request to the URL endpoint `/v1/config/files`. You must include
|
|
the package name, stage name and the `startup.log` in the URL path.
|
|
|
|
$ curl -k -s -u root:icinga 'https://localhost:5665/v1/config/files/example-cmdb/example.localdomain-1441133065-1/startup.log'
|
|
...
|
|
|
|
critical/config: Error: Attribute 'chec_command' does not exist.
|
|
Location:
|
|
/var/lib/icinga2/api/packages/example-cmdb/example.localdomain-1441133065-1/conf.d/test.conf(1): object Host "cmdb-host" { chec_command = "dummy" }
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
|
|
critical/config: 1 error
|
|
|
|
The output is similar to the manual [configuration validation](8-cli-commands.md#config-validation).
|
|
|
|
> **Note**
|
|

|
|
> The returned output is plain-text instead of JSON-encoded.

|
|
|
|
### <a id="icinga2-api-config-management-delete-config-stage"></a> Deleting Configuration Package Stage
|
|
|
|
You can send a `DELETE` request to the URL endpoint `/v1/config/stages`
|
|
in order to purge a configuration stage. You must include the package and
|
|
stage name inside the URL path.
|
|
|
|
The following example removes the failed configuration stage `example.localdomain-1441133065-1`
|
|
in the `example-cmdb` configuration package:
|
|
|
|
$ curl -k -s -u root:icinga -H 'Accept: application/json' -X DELETE \
|
|
'https://localhost:5665/v1/config/stages/example-cmdb/example.localdomain-1441133065-1' | python -m json.tool
|
|
{
|
|
"results": [
|
|
{
|
|
"code": 200.0,
|
|
"status": "Stage deleted."
|
|
}
|
|
]
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
|
|
### <a id="icinga2-api-config-management-delete-config-package"></a> Deleting Configuration Package
|
|
|
|
In order to completely purge a configuration package and its stages
|
|
you can send a `DELETE` request to the URL endpoint `/v1/config/packages`
|
|
with the package name in the URL path.
|
|
|
|
This example entirely deletes the configuration package `example-cmdb`:
|
|
|
|
$ curl -k -s -u root:icinga -H 'Accept: application/json' -X DELETE \
|
|
'https://localhost:5665/v1/config/packages/example-cmdb' | python -m json.tool
|
|
{
|
|
"results": [
|
|
{
|
|
"code": 200.0,
|
|
"package": "example-cmdb",
|
|
"status": "Deleted package."
|
|
}
|
|
]
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
|
|
## <a id="icinga2-api-types"></a> Types
|
|
|
|
You can retrieve the configuration object types by sending a `GET` request to URL
|
|
endpoint `/v1/types`.
|
|
|
|
Each response entry in the results array contains the following attributes:
|
|
|
|
Attribute | Type | Description
|
|
---------------|--------------|---------------------
|
|
name | string | The type name.
|
|
plural_name | string | The plural type name.
|
|
fields | dictionary | Available fields including details on e.g. the type and attribute accessibility.
|
|
abstract | boolean | Whether objects can be instantiated for this type.
|
|
base | boolean | The base type (e.g. `Service` inherits fields and prototype methods from `Checkable`).
|
|
prototype_keys | string array | Available prototype methods.
|
|
|
|
In order to view a specific configuration object type specify its name inside the URL path:
|
|
|
|
$ curl -k -s -u root:icinga 'https://localhost:5665/v1/types/Object' | python -m json.tool
|
|
{
|
|
"results": [
|
|
{
|
|
"abstract": false,
|
|
"fields": {
|
|
"type": {
|
|
"array_rank": 0.0,
|

|
|
"no_user_modify": false,
|
|
"no_user_view": false,
|
|
"required": false,
|
|
"state": false
|
|
},
|
|
"id": 0.0,
|
|
"type": "String"
|
|
}
|
|
},
|
|
"name": "Object",
|
|
"plural_name": "Objects",
|
|
"prototype_keys": [
|
|
"clone",
|
|
"notify_attribute",
|
|
"to_string"
|
|
]
|
|
}
|
|
]
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
|
|
## <a id="icinga2-api-console"></a> Console
|
|
|
|
You can inspect variables and execute other expressions by sending a `POST` request to the URL endpoint `/v1/console/execute-script`.
|
|
In order to receive auto-completion suggestions, send a `POST` request to the URL endpoint `/v1/console/auto-complete-script`.
|
|
|
|
The following parameters need to be specified (either as URL parameters or in a JSON-encoded message body):
|
|
|
|
Parameter | Type | Description
|
|
-----------|--------------|-------------
|
|
session | string | **Optional.** The session ID. Ideally this should be a GUID or some other unique identifier.
|
|
command | string | **Required.** Command expression for execution or auto-completion.
|
|
sandboxed | number | **Optional.** Whether runtime changes are allowed or forbidden. Defaults to disabled.
|
|
|
|
The [API permission](9-icinga2-api.md#icinga2-api-permissions) `console` is required for executing
|
|
expressions.
|
|
|
|
If you specify a session identifier, the same script context can be reused for multiple requests. This allows you to, for example, set a local variable in a request and use that local variable in another request. Sessions automatically expire after a set period of inactivity (currently 30 minutes).
|
|
|
|
Example for fetching the command line from the local host's last check result:
|
|
|
|
$ curl -k -s -u root:icinga -H 'Accept: application/json' -X POST 'https://localhost:5665/v1/console/execute-script?command=get_host(NodeName).last_check_result.command&sandboxed=0&session=bb75fd7c-c686-407d-9688-582c04227756' | python -m json.tool
|
|
{
|
|
"results": [
|
|
{
|
|
"code": 200.0,
|
|
"result": [
|
|
"/usr/local/sbin/check_ping",
|
|
"-H",
|
|
"127.0.0.1",
|
|
"-c",
|
|
"5000,100%",
|
|
"-w",
|
|
"3000,80%"
|
|
],
|
|
"status": "Executed successfully."
|
|
}
|
|
]
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
Example for fetching auto-completion suggestions for the `Host.` type. This works in a
|
|
similar fashion when pressing TAB inside the [console CLI command](8-cli-commands.md#cli-command-console):
|
|
|
|
$ curl -k -s -u root:icinga -H 'Accept: application/json' -X POST 'https://localhost:5665/v1/console/auto-complete-script?command=Host.&sandboxed=0&session=bb75fd7c-c686-407d-9688-582c04227756' | python -m json.tool
|
|
{
|
|
"results": [
|
|
{
|
|
"code": 200.0,
|
|
"status": "Auto-completed successfully.",
|
|
"suggestions": [
|
|
"Host.type",
|
|
"Host.name",
|
|
"Host.prototype",
|
|
"Host.base",
|
|
"Host.register_attribute_handler",
|
|
"Host.clone",
|
|
"Host.notify_attribute",
|
|
"Host.to_string"
|
|
]

## <a id="icinga2-api-clients"></a> API Clients
|
|
|
|
There are a couple of existing clients which can be used with the Icinga 2 API:
|
|
|
|
* [curl](http://curl.haxx.se) or any other HTTP client really
|
|
* [Icinga 2 console (CLI command)](9-icinga2-api.md#icinga2-api-clients-cli-console)
|
|
* [Icinga Studio](9-icinga2-api.md#icinga2-api-clients-icinga-studio)
|
|
* [Icinga Web 2 Director](https://dev.icinga.org/projects/icingaweb2-modules)
|
|
|
|
Demo cases:
|
|
|
|
* [Dashing](https://github.com/Icinga/dashing-icinga2)
|
|
* [API examples](https://github.com/Icinga/icinga2-api-examples)
|
|
|
|
Additional [programmatic examples](9-icinga2-api.md#icinga2-api-clients-programmatic-examples)
|
|
will help you getting started using the Icinga 2 API in your environment.
|
|
|
|
### <a id="icinga2-api-clients-icinga-studio"></a> Icinga Studio
|
|
|
|
Icinga Studio is a graphical application to query configuration objects provided by the API.
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
![Icinga Studio Overview](images/icinga2-api/icinga2_api_icinga_studio_overview.png)
|
|
|
|
Please check the package repository of your distribution for available
|
|
packages.
|
|
|
|
> **Note**
|
|
> Icinga Studio does not currently support SSL certificate verification.
|
|
|
|
The Windows installer already includes Icinga Studio. On Debian and Ubuntu the package
|
|
`icinga2-studio` can be used to install Icinga Studio.
|
|
|
|
### <a id="icinga2-api-clients-cli-console"></a> Icinga 2 Console
|
|
|
|
By default the [console CLI command](8-cli-commands.md#cli-command-console) evaluates expressions in a local interpreter, i.e. independently from your Icinga 2 daemon. Using the `--connect` parameter you can use the Icinga 2 console to evaluate expressions via the API.
|
|
|
|
### <a id="icinga2-api-clients-programmatic-examples"></a> API Clients Programmatic Examples
|
|
|
|
The programmatic examples use HTTP basic authentication and SSL certificate
|
|
verification. The CA file is expected in `pki/icinga2-ca.crt`
|
|
but you may adjust the examples for your likings.
|
|
|
|
The request method is `POST` using `X-HTTP-Method-Override: GET`
|
|
which allows you to send a JSON request body. The examples request
|
|
specific service attributes joined with host attributes. `attrs`
|
|
and `joins` are therefore specified as array.
|
|
The `filter` attribute matches on all services with `ping` in their name.
|
|
|
|
#### <a id="icinga2-api-clients-programmatic-examples-python"></a> Example API Client in Python
|
|
