Object inherit information API

Hi guys.

 

I need some advice regarding API which providing object inherit information.

 

I already know how to find out inherit information using CLI command.

 

These are example.

 

there are 3 vips, 2pools and binding information.

 

VIP1 - POOL1

VIP2 - POOL1

VIP3 - POOL2

 

when we need to delete POOL1, we need to delete or change VIP1 and VIP2.

 

So before delete POOL1, I need object`s inherit information.

 

ex) show ltm pool POOL1 inherit-information

output ) --> VIP1 VIP2

 

Does anyone know API or nice method?

 

with regards,

    I would do:

    1) Get the pool information from all the virtuals (tmsh list ltm virtual pool)

    2) Grep the target pool.

    For example, to get the virtuals with the pool "Pool-CentOS80",

    curl -sku <user>:<pass> https://<mgmtIp>/mgmt/tm/ltm/virtual?\$select=pool,fullPath | python -m json.tool | grep -B 1 Pool-CentOS80 | grep fullPath
