Finding "Metrics" for a device via RestAPI

[bennettdarren (Darren Bennett)]

I have been using the RestAPI to get information about my devices so I can do some analytics on the data. I want to add the information listed via the https://graph.api.smartthings.com/ site under “Metrics” (info like: Last Hop LQI, Last Hop RSSI, etc), but I have been unable to find the info via any of the RestAPIs.

Can anyone confirm if the information is available or not?

Zigbee routing information for Edge connected devices

A long, long, time ago, battery events vanished from the device events history overnight without comment. Reading the developer documentation much later gave the impression that the battery was considered part of the ‘health’ of a device, as were things like the signal strength. So I’ve always hoped we were going to see significant developments with the device health endpoint. Not a sniff so far though. There are a few ZigBee and Z-Wave bits and bobs in the devices endpoint but no sign of any routing information yet. It was possible to read it in Groovy Device Handlers, though I’ve long since forgotten how, so I can’t imagine it isn’t lurking somewhere. I’d like to think it isn’t available because something better is coming along, but then I like to think when the legacy platform sunsets…

Interesting that you asked this question because I’ve raised a few tickets about this and other related information with the engineers about it.

Right now the Metrics information available through edge Drivers and DTH’s and not through any RestAPI AFAIK. What’s also missing is other information like the firmware data which isn’t available anywhere for Drivers or RestAPI’s except through DTH’s.

It seems to be ‘or not’ at the moment, at least in the public v1 API.
