Hello,
I'd like to make a change to the REST API for policies. As this is a REST
API change I figured it would be best to flag it on the mailing list first
in case anyone has any objections.
It would be useful when consuming this API to be able to find out more
information about the policy. Specifically, it would be useful to find out
things like last action performed, last policy violation, last
confirmation, what the triggers are etc.
To do so, I plan to amend the REST API to include 'highlights' for a
policy. Highlights are a map of a name to a tuple of information including
description, time and task.
Essentially this endpoint:
"GET /applications/{application}/entities/{entity}/policies"
Will now include this:
[{
...
"highlights": {
"Last Confirmation": {
"description": "sdjnfvsdjvfdjsng",
"time": 12345689,
"taskId": 1345
},
...
}
}]
Please shout if you have any problems with this, otherwise I'll submit a PR
shortly with this change.
Regards,
Graeme Miller
