RESTful call to query Global Collection

[Anon Anon]

Does anyone has an example of how to query list of device names and ip address which are member of a global collection using RESTful api call?

 

Or do I have to create a search and query the results (example in GetModelsFromExistingSearch.xml) of that using RESTful call?

This attribute shows all the collections a model is a member of. Alternatively you can do a REST API Association call to show Dynamic and Static Collection Associations (0x1003b and I think 0x1003a)

 

CollectionsModelNameString

0x12adb

Text String

Lewis,

 

Thanks for responding. I don't want to parse 10,000 devices and see which device is part of the global collection I am looking for. Instead I want to parse the global collection to see what devices are members of it, as the devices are spread across several DSS.

 

thanks,

You can perform a `show associations` like call requesting the dynamicGlobalCollects or staticGlobalCollects associations to your Global Collection

 

dynamicGlobalCollects            0x1003a MANY_TO_MANY

staticGlobalCollects                 0x1003b MANY_TO_MANY

 

GlobalCollection mh=0x100bdc

You just need to include the attribute for 'Network_Address' (0x12d7f) in the list of requested attributes.
