Problem

When exporting notifications, doing it in UI only returns a maximum full month worth of data. This may due to defined retention period and housekeeping of data.

Solution

Notifications are stored from the datastore, thus, it can be exported when a large amount of data is needed. To do this, install the script notifications_export and run from the host.

# ./notifications_export --help
usage: notifications_export.py [-h] [-v] [-g HOSTGROUP] [-d DAYS] [-s START_DATE] [-e END_DATE] [-p PAGE_SIZE]
 
Export notifications log. 

optional arguments:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  -v, --verbose         Display verbose information.
  -g HOSTGROUP, --hostgroup HOSTGROUP
                        Limit to the specified Hostgroup.
  -d DAYS, --days DAYS  Limit to the last N days (default: 7).
  -s START_DATE, --start_date START_DATE
                        Start date for the export (YYYY/MM/DD)
  -e END_DATE, --end_date END_DATE
                        End date for the export (YYYY/MM/DD)
  -p PAGE_SIZE, --page_size PAGE_SIZE
                        Page size to fetch

Example

- export all notifications from August 8, 2023 to Decemeber 31, 2023 and save to a csv file.
# ./notification_export -s 2023/08/01 -e 2023/12/31
