Compare latency using REST API

Hi, I would like to use REST API to create probes and session, then perform a latency check and generate reports to send to me automatically. I found the following REST commands to create probes

curl -X POST "">localhost:17778/.../Orion.NetPath.Probes" -H "accept: application/json" -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d "{\"ProbeID\":0,\"Name\":\"string\",\"AgentID\":0,\"EngineID\":0,\"DetailsUrl\":\"string\",\"Description\":\"string\",\"Enabled\":true,\"Status\":0}"

not sure sessions is it a different commands or is it included? But I can't find the exact REST API command to do the latency check using netpath, can anyone advise me on that?

Thanks,

Jinqiang

Hello,

As far as I know this is not currently possible via API. You will notice the absence of any verbs for the Orion.NetPath entity.

This looks like what you're looking for. Are you looking for a way to get that out of the API?

SELECT TOP 10
    Performances.TimeStamp
    , Probes.Description
    , Performances.RttMin
    , Performances.RttMax
    , Performances.RttAvg
FROM Orion.NetPath.Performances
INNER JOIN Orion.NetPath.Probes ON Performances.ProbeID = Probes.ProbeID
ORDER BY TimeStamp DESC

Hi mrxinu,

Yes this is what I am looking for but I want to get that out using API after comparing using Netpath. Any idea how to do that?

Thanks,

Alright, you gave a cURL example so I figured that's the format I'd use to reply. Here is a query that gets the top 100 most recent statistics for a particular endpoint:

curl --location --request POST 'https://<redacted>:17778/SolarWinds/InformationService/v3/Json/Query' --header 'Content-Type: application/json' --header 'Authorization: Basic <redacted>' --data-raw '{
	"query": "SELECT TOP 100 Performances.TimeStamp, AVG(Performances.RttAvg) AS AverageRtt FROM Orion.NetPath.EndpointServices AS EndpointServices INNER JOIN Orion.NetPath.Performances AS Performances ON EndpointServices.EndpointServiceID = Performances.EndpointServiceID WHERE EndpointServices.DisplayName = @displayName GROUP BY EndpointServices.DisplayName, Performances.TimeStamp ORDER BY Performances.TimeStamp DESC",
	"parameters": {
		"displayName": "Office 365"
	}
}'

The query if you want to try it in SWQL Studio:

SELECT TOP 100
    Performances.TimeStamp
    , AVG(Performances.RttAvg) AS AverageRtt
FROM Orion.NetPath.EndpointServices AS EndpointServices
INNER JOIN Orion.NetPath.Performances AS Performances ON EndpointServices.EndpointServiceID = Performances.EndpointServiceID
WHERE EndpointServices.DisplayName = @displayName
GROUP BY EndpointServices.DisplayName, Performances.TimeStamp
ORDER BY Performances.TimeStamp DESC
