Provide search methods through the API
Added by Lionel Le Folgoc almost 10 years ago.

Description
Hi,
That would be great if the REST API could provide some search functions, for example hostname/ip search.
Right now it's a bit cumbersome to do that with the API: create a group with the searched hostname as regex, force group refresh, list nodes from the group and delete the group. Especially since two or three of these actions trigger a full policy regeneration...
Thanks.

Looks like a good and useful use case to me too.
Giving this to FAR for evaluation :)
Thanks Lionel!

You now (since 3.1 at least) have the possibility to get the full list of nodes with more fine grained level of details. With that and a post-processing with grep/jq, you can reach your goal.
Perhaps we could also open the quicksearh api for public use.
