[LogicMonitor.CollectorProperty:]
Inserts one or more properties of a LogicMonitor Collector.
Purpose
Inserts one or more properties of a LogicMonitor Collector, given its ID.
Macro Compatibility
The macro can be used in all input document types and in Report Studio.
Usage
You should no longer use the 'DeviceCount' and 'DeviceId' properties. Use 'ResourceCount' and 'ResourceId' instead.

String | Optional | The variable to store the result as, while hiding the output. Equivalent to 'storeAs=ThisValue, hidden=true'. | N/A | N/A | |||
Char | Optional | The delimiter used by storeAs to split the input (Legacy mode only), when there are multiple stored variables. For example, in this macro, we indicate that the value to be stored should be split by the asterisk when being stored: [String:value=a*b*c*d, storeAs=var1;var2;var3;var4, storeAsVariableDelimiter=*] | N/A | ; | |||
String | Optional | The name of the STRING variable to store the result as and output (both will use the same format) into the report. Note that if you also use 'storeAsHidden' in the same macro, you should not expect the output to be hidden, as this parameter overrides that. | N/A | N/A | |||
Boolean | Optional | Whether to wait during LogicMonitor upgrades (i.e. execution essentially pauses). |
|
N/A | |||
String | Optional | If specified, adds a warning message for this macro. This is processed as an NCalc, and the warning message will ALWAYS be present and will be the value of the evaluated NCalc expression. | N/A | N/A | |||

Examples (4)
Example 1: Legacy mode
This Legacy Mode example displays the name and status of all Collectors. The [LogicMonitor.CollectorList:] macro initially obtains all Collector IDs, then iterates over them using the [ForEach:] macro. Next, The [LogicMonitor.CollectorProperty:] macro is used to obtain the properties which it stores as a delimited string it a variable called Details. Finally, [Regex:] macros are used to split the value of the Details variable we obtained (which stores the data as: name^status) into two parts separated by the caret, and hence we have the name and status:
[LogicMonitor.CollectorList: properties=Id, storeAsHidden=Ids, mode=Legacy] [ForEach: values={Ids}, storeAs=Id][LogicMonitor.CollectorProperty: id={Id}, properties=HostName;Status, mode=Legacy, storeAsHidden=Details] Name: [Regex: value={Details}, pattern="(.*)\^.*"] Status: [Regex: value={Details}, pattern=".*\^(.*)"] [EndForEach:]
Example 2: Normal mode
This Normal Mode example displays the name and status of all Collectors. The [LogicMonitor.CollectorList:] macro initially obtains all Collector IDs, then we iterate over them using the [ForEach:] macro. Next, the [Calculate:] macro's shorthand form of [.:] is used to extract the Id property of the variable (which is a JObject) and store into a second integer variable. This variable can now be used by the [LogicMonitor.CollectorProperty:] macro (as it requires a simple ID) to obtain the required properties. Finally, [.:] macros are used again to obtain both properties from the variable called Object.
[LogicMonitor.CollectorList: properties=Id, storeAsHidden=IdObjects, mode=Normal] [ForEach: values={=IdObjects}, storeAs=IdObject][.:IdObject.Id, =>Id][LogicMonitor.CollectorProperty: id={Id}, properties=HostName;Status, mode=Normal, storeAsHidden=Object] Name: [.:Object.HostName] Status: [.:Object.Status] [EndForEach:]
Example 3: Normal mode
This Normal Mode example outputs the PredefinedConfiguration property of the first Collector as unformatted JSON:
[LogicMonitor.CollectorList: properties=Id, mode=Normal, singleValueList=true, =>CollectorIds][List.First: values={=CollectorIds}, mode=Normal, condition=true, =>FirstCollectorId][LogicMonitor.CollectorProperty: id={FirstCollectorId}, properties=PredefinedConfiguration, JsonFormat=None, mode=Normal]
Example 4: Normal mode
This Normal Mode example get the PredefinedConfiguration property of the first Collector as indented (prettified) JSON:
[LogicMonitor.CollectorList: properties=Id, mode=Normal, singleValueList=true, =>CollectorIds][List.First: values={=CollectorIds}, mode=Normal, condition=true, =>FirstCollectorId][LogicMonitor.CollectorProperty: id={FirstCollectorId}, properties=PredefinedConfiguration, JsonFormat=Indented, mode=Normal]
