Missing information needed for iControl Call

I'm trying to dynamically pull all of the settings for External Monitors off of my BIG-IP and have located all of the methods that I need except one.

 

Method: LocalLB::Monitor::get_template_user_defined_string_property

 

Requires two inputs: 1. template_names (I have this information) 2. property_names

 

I am unable to find a method that I can use to dynamically build a list of "property_names", but haven't found one and all of my testing thus far has resulted in a dead end.

 

Has anyone been able to successfully pull the User-Defined Variables from an External Monitor with iControl?

    Hi Michael! I fiddled around with monitors a week ago or so and I was unable to find a way as well. The only way I could think of at the time (lousy way) was to have an array of possible variables and test them with get_template_user_defined_string_property. Not pretty, but it suited my needs at the time. Would appreciate a solution to this too!
