Ok, so I figured out something. Requesting data without filters, grouping, columns, etc. gives an empty resultset. Talking to the API like this: http://test-icinga/icinga-web/web/api/service/columns[SERVICE_NAME|HOST_NAME|SERVICE_CURRENT_STATE|HOST_NAME|HOST_CURRENT_STATE|HOSTGROUP_NAME]/order(SERVICE_CURRENT_STATE;DESC)/countColumn=SERVICE_ID/authkey=dashboard/xml returns the correct results.
So the question is: shouldn't the API, if called without any filters, sorting, etc. return "target" with all its properties? Is there a "target" which lists all hosts with its services like the /status call in the Nagios-API? (I'm building my own dashboard based on Nagdash and would be very happy to be able to query the API like that) On Mon, Jan 20, 2014 at 11:55 AM, Ferenc Stelcz <ferenc.ste...@gmail.com>wrote: > Hi! > > I'm making myself familiar with the Icinga Web REST API, but I'm stuck and > can't figure out what the problem could be. > > I have a production Icinga (1.8.4) with icinga-web 1.8.1. > > auth.xml is configured to enable api key authentication.
