Code Examples

Example #1 - Querying Agent Status Information

# This script will loop through each row of the dataset and grab out every value from that row and assign it to a matching variable. Those variables can then be used in some way.
results=system.eam.queryAgentStatus()
for row in range(results.rowCount):
    agentName=results.getValueAt(row, "AgentName")
    nodeRole=results.getValueAt(row, "NodeRole")
    agentGroup=results.getValueAt(row, "AgentGroup")
    lastComm=results.getValueAt(row, "LastCommunication")
    isConnected=results.getValueAt(row, "IsConnected")
    isRunning=results.getValueAt(row, "IsRunning")
    runningState=results.getValueAt(row, "RunningState")
    runningStateInt=results.getValueAt(row, "RunningStateInt")
    licenseKey=results.getValueAt(row, "LicenseKey")
    platformVersion=results.getValueAt(row, "Version")
    # Can include some code here to use the variables in some way for each row like printing each variable to the console.

Example #2 - Querying Agent Status Information

# This script will grab status information from agents called Agent1, Agent2, Agent3, and will then place the data into a table on the same window.
results=system.eam.queryAgentStatus(agentIds=["Agent1", "Agent2", "Agent3"])
event.source.parent.getComponent('Table').data = results
