Hi RIPE Atlas people. I wonder if it could be possible to add an option on the "measurements" webpage of a previous stopped or running measurement, to be able to see the API call that created it. Just like the "Measurement API Compatible Specification" section, when you create one. It could be available just to the user who created it... and even with API keys obscured.
That will be very handy to be able to replay and exact measurement, or to have the list of probes in a ready-to-use format.
Hi Hugo, Replicating existing measurements is something which has been on our radar for a while, and we are considering options similar to that which you propose. In the meanwhile, you can get a lot of the way towards replicating a measurement by basing your POST data on the JSON measurement spec from the API (/api/v2/measurements/{existing_msm_id}/) and using the "msm" type of probe selection (https://atlas.ripe.net/docs/api/v2/manual/measurements/types/in_detail.html) to run the measurement on the same set of probes (if desired). Thanks for the feedback. Regards, Chris Amin
