May i ask what you are planning to achieve? Usually you want to use icingacli businessprocess check

We would like to get the status for our businness processes in influx and show them in grafana for our helpdesk users. We have built one dashboard in grafana and would like to show it to our helpdesk. Icinga is to complicated for our helpdesk. The only want to know the status. Green or red.

Not sure, it if provides perfdata to the influxwriter but it could be easily patched if not.

Icinga Director is a different module and has it’s own API and has nothing to do with the businessprocess module.

I just had a look at my setup and IMHO the only API is this:

icingacli businessprocess process check ISOP ADT –config Pikett –state-type hard
Business Process OK: ISOP ADT
echo $?
0

If you would patch the icingacli businessprocess process check to expose the state numerically as perfdata you could feed this into the InfluxDB writer.
