Support
1

Hi,
Using foreman api, I am trying to list all facts with field "Reported
at" as Foreman UI is displaying.
e.g. call to "https://foreman.com/api/fact_values?search=fact_name" deosn't
return "Reported at" as it is display in foreman UI.

Any help/suggestion would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Chetan

Hi,
it seems the API does not return the "Reported at" field for facts. Feel
free to file a feature request at [1].

Sorry I couldn't be more of a help,

To follow up on that, the Reported At field is a property of the host in
Foreman, it's not a fact. It's the time Foreman last received a report
from Puppet (or Chef, Ansible, etc) about this host.

You can get the last report for a given host using something like:

$ curl -k -u user:pass
'https://topaz/api/v2/hosts/<host id>/reports/last'
>json_pp | grep "reported_at"

Hope that helps.
