Need help getting and applying custom grains from a REST api.

[steven...@firstdata.com]

We are looking to pull fields from an API and then apply them to our servers as a grain. I saw the rest example but I don't know how to flesh out a bit more to what I need. Does anyone have an example they can share?

You could model it after the metadata grains that are going to be in
2017.7, which just pulls down json information from the ec2/openstack
metadata servers.
