How to get the list of all Bamboo agents via REST

Xabier Davila April 12, 2016

How can I get the list of all Bamboo agents via REST?

I need it for several automated reports, monitoring, etc.

I've seen the ages-api, but as far as I can see it does not provide the list of agents.

REST API Documentation Status

The Bamboo REST API guide is a bit confusing/misleading currently, insofar the Bamboo REST resources reference guide linked from the Getting Started section is incomplete/outdated. The current REST API documentation is only referred to from an info tip on that page in turn:

API reference for your Bamboo version is the recommended source of information on Bamboo REST APIs.

Agents Resource

As per the resp. Bamboo 5.10.3 REST API Documentation, a GET on the /agent resource provides a list of all agents:

Use query parameter "online = true/false" to filter only online agents.

Thanks, that's exactly what I need, with the exception I'm still on Bamboo 5.7.2. Do you know what release added this funtionality? Can't see it in the Release Notes

Good question - briefly checking the available REST API versions suggests that this has indeed just been added to the Bamboo 5.10.2 API recently, i.e. previous versions still lack the /agent resource, surprisingly.
