Run CLM Application Diagnostics through API

As a best practice, my team is currently running twice daily “health checks” on the CLM application servers.  As part of this, we open a browser for each application server’s (/jts, /ccm, /rm, /qm, /dcc) /admin page and manually execute and monitor the diagnostics. We also navigate to /dcc/web and run all data collection jobs.  We would like to do this in a more automated fashion, and we’re hoping the Rest API will allow us to do so.  Does anyone have any advice as to how to accomplish this?  One note to consider, we have Ansible in our environment, and we are exploring how we may use it as part of this solution.  Thank you in advance.
