POST - Register data / statpoints with Bash

In this example, we use a Bash script with CURL to post the request to AIMS. The script will get the current CPU and UTC timestamp and use these variables in the JSON.

#!/bin/bash

while true; do
CPU=`top -b -n1 | grep "Cpu(s)" | awk '{print $2 + $4}'`
UTCDATE=`date -u '+%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%SZ'`

curl --location --request POST 'https://api.aimsinnovation.com/api/environments/{environmentId}/statpoints/' \
--header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
--header 'X-System: 10' \
--header 'Authorization: Basic yourkey' \
--data-raw '[

sleep 15
