  • 1.  Obtain a list of data collectors via API

    Posted Sep 27, 2016 04:46 PM

    Hi All,

     

    Does anyone know what call to use to get a list of data collectors via the REST API? (Should be a GET but can't find it in CAPC or DA.

     

    I'm keen to get information as seen on the:

     

    Administation -> Data Source Settings -> Data Aggregator @ SERVER 

    -> System Status -> Data Collectors

     

    I'm keen to get a list as well as the Status and stats on for each Data Collector.

     

    Many Thanks,

    Frank

    Thanks Arvind!

     

    That's the one.

     

    It looks like an undocumented call. Was looking through the list using only rest and couldn't find it.

     

    Are there any other undocumented 'gems' I should be aware of?

     

    I find this with the Spectrum API as well. Seems there are some really cool API calls 'hidden' like easter eggs waiting to be found!!!

     

    Thanks for that - very helpful!
