GET

There are two three implementations of GET. One will find an Endpoint with the given Id and return the JSON representation of the Endpoint. The other next one will find a list of Endpoints matching the parameters supplied to it. The last one will test the connection to an endpoint.

GET by ID

This GET service will find an Endpoint with the given Id and return the JSON representation of the object.

If we had an endpoint in our database with an Id of 13901 and had the following attributes

Code Block

When we run a GET request at the following URL

http://host:port/flexdeploy/rest/v1/topology/endpoint/13901

The GET request would return the following JSON endpoint object

GET (Using Query Parameters)

This GET service will return a list of Endpoints in the form of JSON objects based on the query parameters name, address, group and subgroup. Endpoints are only returned if they match ALL of the specified query parameters. If no query parameters are given this request will return the entire list of Endpoints.

Info
titleAPI URL
