[LogicMonitor.DeviceGroupProperty:]UPDATED
Outputs a property of a LogicMonitor Resource Group (historically called a Device Group).
Purpose
Outputs a property of a LogicMonitor Resource Group (historically called a Device Group). This macro handles Resource Groups that were present in LogicMonitor at the time the report was run.
Macro Compatibility
The macro can be used in all input document types and in Report Studio.
Usage
As well as custom properties, supported Resource Group parameters include:
- AlertEnable
- AlertStatus
- AppliesTo
- AwsDeviceCount (deprecated in favour of AwsResourceCount)
- AwsResourceCount
- AwsRegionInfo
- AwsTestResult
- AzureResourceCount
- CreatedOnUtc
- Description
- DeviceCount (deprecated in favour of ResourceCount)
- Extra
- FullPath
- GcpResourceCount
- GroupStatus
- Id
- Name
- ParentId
- ResourceCount
- SdtStatus
- SubGroups
What's New
(2025-06-02)Updated the help examples. Marked deprecated Device Group parameters in favour of Resource Group parameters. Added 'AzureResourceCount' and 'GcpResourceCount' property support.

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 | |||

Examples (3)
Example 1:
This example outputs the number of Resources in the root Resource Group:
Resources count: [LogicMonitor.DeviceGroupProperty: resourceGroup=/, property=ResourceCount]
Example 2:
This example outputs the ID (used by LogicMonitor) of the root Resource Group:
The ID of the root Resource Group is: [LogicMonitor.DeviceGroupProperty: resourceGroup=/, property=Id]
Example 3: Normal mode
This Normal Mode example outputs all the IDs (used by LogicMonitor) of all Resource Groups
[LogicMonitor.DeviceGroupList: resourceGroups=/, recurseResourceGroups=true, singleValueList=true, property=FullPath, orderBy=FullPath, mode=Normal, =>FullPaths] [ForEach: values={=FullPaths}, storeAs=FullPath] Resource Group at '[String: value={FullPath}]' has an ID of [LogicMonitor.DeviceGroupProperty: resourceGroup={=FullPath}, property=Id] [EndForEach:]
