Managing policies through APIs

The temporal training resulted in a really large set of insights, with over 50 thousand results. As the operators review the generated policies, we need enable, disable, or achive policies frequently. However, doing that through the UI is really time consuming for this many insights. We need a way to speed up the process through command line, or using API calls.

It would also be helpful to be able to query policy definitions as well. I list below some filters we would like to be able to use:

  • Policy state (if it is active, not active, or archived)
  • Policy dates (creation, change, or last time it run)
  • Policy type (if it is a scope, sazonal, temporal, or topology policy, as well as if it is default or created by a user or model training)
  • Specificaly for temporal policies, filter policies a specific alert is present. Being able to filter by an alert field other than its signature would be an even greater tool

We have discussed in a recent case that some temporal policies were not visible in the UI due to their definition data being too large, so AIOps prevents them to be loaded to not overload the interface. It would be very helpful to easily get a list of policies in this situation through an API call, so that they can be easily identified.
