Query foreman for specific host mac or ip using curl

Support
1

Hi,

If I want a specific item for a host, like mac or ip, shouldn't I be able
to query it like this:

curl -k -u id:pass -H 'Accept: version=2,application/json'
https://foremanserver/api/hosts/server1.domainname/mac

I see i'm able to query hostbased parameters like this: curl -k -u id:pass
-H 'Accept: version=2,application/json'
https://foremanserver/api/hosts/server1.domainname/parameters/param1 but
can't get just mac or ip…

That is not a valid route, however you could query:
https://foremanserver/api/hosts/server1.domainname/

The response will contain a subfield called 'interfaces', with an array
of all interfaces in your host, and you can get the ips/macs from there.

Alternatively, if you just need the interfaces and don't care about any
other attributes, you can query:
https://foremanserver/api/hosts/server1.domainname/interfaces

Hope this helped
