Purpose of script: This script collects metric count data from your ACI fabric using REST API calls and saves it to an Excel file on the local computer. It requires a CSV file as input, containing the IPs, usernames, passwords, and Fabric Names of the APICs you want to gather data from. The output Excel file can be used with another script, "barchartcreate.py", which generates a bar chart to display trending data visually. The output Excel file will be named 'ExcelData_Chart.xlsx' and saved in the current working directory. Users may rename the file as necessary to suit their needs.
