Response Description

The list of all event collectors. A event collector contains the following fields:
  • id - Long - The ID of the event collector.
  • name - String - The display name of the event collector. Not localized because it is derived from a process/component name and the hostname of the managed host it runs on, neither of which are translatable.
  • component_name - String - The name of the component backing this event collector process. Also contained in the 'name' field.
  • host_id - Long - The ID of the host on which this event collector process runs. See the Hosts API (/api/config/deployment/hosts/)..
