REST API to get Active alerts

BradV — Fri, 15 Feb 2019 11:03:22 GMT

Trying to just pull out the active alerts using the following:

ACTIVE=$(curl --insecure \
              --header "X-API-Version: ${currentVersion}" \
              --header "auth: ${sessionID}" \
              --request GET ${OneView}/rest/alerts?start=0&count=-1&filter="alertState EQ 'Active'")

However, getting back a lot with alertState set to "Cleared." Is something wrong with my syntax?

Hi @BradV

Small correction to your APU invocation. You may want to use the below with curl, the URL Encoded values for the special characters such as single quote and double quotes.
GET http://localhost/rest/alerts?start=0&coun=-1&filter=%22alertState+EQ+%27Active%27%22

Will let the alerts team respond on the functional issue you are asking about.

Yes. That worked better. :)

Is that in the documentation? The REST API reference for version 800 and the /rest/alerts does not mention it (unless I missed it?).

Thanks!
