    Hi Dharma,


    thanks for your idea. We do not plan to support data export from the UI (in the near future).

    However, to your 2nd request I published a blog post, laying out the details on how to access the requested information via the Instana REST API.

    You can access the blog post via the IBM Instana Community site here: https://community.ibm.com/community/user/instana/blogs/henning-treu/2024/11/26/use-the-instana-api-to-match-hosts-and-agents

    I appreciate any question or comment related to the blog post.


    Best regards
