Hello Rohit, 

For instances where we are able to detect a serial number the value is stored as an attribute of the instance. You can leverage API calls to FortiMonitor to pull server attribute values for instances. Information on how to setup an API key for FortiMonitor can be found here.

 

Once you've setup an API key you can make a query against the following endpoint using the server ID to pull the attribute values for a specific server.

GET /server/{server_id}/server_attribute

 

From within the results returned by that API call the serial number for SNMP instances will be the 'value' returned for the attribute with the following text key value. 

 "textkey": "snmp.serial_num"

 

Please let us know if you have any further questions. 

 

Thanks, 

Mike
