This is the command I am trying to use
curl -XDELETE "https://<Nagios xi Host Name>/nagiosxi/api/v1/config/service?apikey=tBNRmsqitghiurFNECXKOu7RjkI6AEOX7p8egoCQKvelfSoSLmCvAB&pretty=1&host_name=testapihost&service_description=Disk Usage on /usr/local&applyconfig=1" -k
Here is the error I get.
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//IETF//DTD HTML 2.0//EN">
<html><head>
<title>400 Bad Request</title>
</head><body>
<h1>Bad Request</h1>
<p>Your browser sent a request that this server could not understand.<br />
</p>
</body></html>

Could someone help me with this? . I have got 1000+ servers and I need to delete/remove a 'Disk/File system' service
Unable to delete service using curl 'XDELTE' on Nagios xi 5.

Re: Unable to delete service using curl 'XDELTE' on Nagios X
It's probably getting hung up because the service_description isn't URL encoded. Try this.
Also, if that does the trick, this site can help out a ton when working with curl and APIs.

Code: Select all
curl -XDELETE "https://<Nagios xi Host Name>/nagiosxi/api/v1/config/service?apikey=tBNRmsqitghiurFNECXKOu7RjkI6AEOX7p8egoCQKvelfSoSLmCvAB&pretty=1&host_name=testapihost&service_description=Disk%20Usage%20on%20%2Fusr%2Flocal&applyconfig=1" -khttps://www.url-encode-decode.com/

Re: Unable to delete service using curl 'XDELTE' on Nagios X
Thank you very much indeed!. That looks to have done the trick. So, if there is no character or word in the square brackets after "failed", does it mean there was/is no error?
{
"success": "Removed services from the system. Config applied, Nagios Core was restarted.",
"services": [
"testapihost - Disk Usage on \/var\/tmp"
],
"failed": [
]
}
