So…the Rest API on GL is awesome, and many other products have a similar feature.
It’s it possible to have GL query the Rest API of another product and ingest it as a data stream?
Most everything is a push to GL…but can we make it pull for another source ?
Maybe even just a script in cron job running every 5 minutes? I’m totally guessing here.
All insight is appreciated
Thanks

Hey @ThomasPowers,
take a look at the JSON path from HTTP API input of Graylog.
By configuring a request to https://jsonplaceholder.typicode.com/posts and using the JSON-Path $.*, you get this result:
Sadly, the JSON Input only reads the first matching JSON-Element it finds. But depending on what values you want or how they are structured you can adapt to that (either by selecting a the parent element of the values you want and using a JSON Extactor or by starting multiple inputs that query the values independently).

additional you might want to create a plugin yourself that does what you need.
The Input Section is able to be extended by plugins without any problems.
