Missing Logs from the API endpoint

Hi,

We continuously query Sophos Central API endpoints for alerts, events on a 5 minute basis.

We've noticed that there are missing logs every day.

The next cursor that is returned in every response is used in the next request to query for new data.

But at the end of the day, when i query for events for the entire day using start date instead of next cursor, all of the logs seem to be there.

So, it seems a case of events sneaking in after the response is returned by the API somehow.

Could someone please let us know if anything is missing in the way we query for data ?

Thank you

Ravi

  • The API is differential. If you have gotten a record down in a previous request it won't return that record again.

    Are you seeing only new data in the 5 min intervals and the 'missing' data is the stuff from the previous requests?
