I just finished creating hundreds of groups manually, can we get a bulk import feature for groups?
There are some pretty slick scripts floating around for setting up groups via the api, I almost never deal with them by hand if i can avoid it. If I need one group I'll probably need 50 more.
OrionSDK/Groups.ps1 at master · solarwinds/OrionSDK · GitHub
PowerShell Add Node to Group
And for those of us not versed in using SDK's or Poershell scropts, what options do we have?
This function, as per the original post, should be baked into Solarwinds....
Probably, but if you wait for SW to develop the features you want you might be waiting a long time.
I upvoted the FR as well, just pointing out that a solution/workaround exists already and is actually pretty fast to learn. Once a coworker showed me the github I was able to cobble together enough powershell (starting from having never seen it at all before) to generate groups in bulk a LOT faster than it would have been for me to do 100 groups by hand, plus then I was on my way to learning an incredibly useful skill in powershell.
"So you are saying I just need to figure out how to get my list of the groups I want to create, and wrap this thing in a foreach {} and I'll be done..?"
