disable health rules with rest

[eric.repec]

I know you can use alert suppression to do blackouts of actions, but the rules are still active and the GUI will show the problem even with the supression.  This can be corrected by disabling the rule with rule configuration.  This is time consuming with many rules.  Is there a REST command to list all rules and then submit a series of REST commands to disable and later enable all the health rules?

Hi Eric,

You can use swagger to find all the avaliable API's. Do find the below link for your referance.

https://docs.appdynamics.com/display/PRO43/Access+Swagger+and+Accounts+API

To use below API's you need account-id and application-id which you can get from swagger API's.

GET - /accounts/myaccount : will get you the account-id

GET - /accounts/{accId/applications} : will get you all the application with respective application-ids.

Health Rules API's:

Get HR's for application:

Request type: GET
URL: http://<controller-host>:<port>/controller/api/accounts/<account-id>/applications/<application-id>/healthrules
Response status: 200 OK

Disable HR:

Request type: DELETE
URL: http://<controller-host>:<port>/controller/api/accounts/<account-id>/applications/<application-id>/healthrules/<healthrule-id>/enabled
Response status: 204 No Content

Enable HR:
Request type: PUT
URL: http://<controller-host>:<port>/controller/api/accounts/<account-id>/applications/<application-id>/healthrules/<healthrule-id>/enabled
Response status: 204 No Content

If you want to stop evaluation for all the health rules for a particular application you can do so through UI by unchecking "Evaluate Health Rules" checkbox (refer attached screenshot).
