Description

There is a summary or realtime option, highly recommend real time for performance. monitor/fortiview/statistics/select?realtime=true

If you have plans to implement this I will eagerly await it. If not and you'd like to have this added as a probe I'd be willing to give it a try. You wouldn't want to enable this on a large network as the cardinality would be too high but for home use this is pretty nice info to have.

I attached a samp fortigate_fortiview_stats_example.json.txt le payload from my 61E

Research direction
Investigate the FortiView statistics API endpoint (/api/v2/monitor/fortiview/statistics/select) and implement a new probe similar to existing ones in the fortigate exporter. Use the provided example payload to understand the response structure.
