Response Codes
HTTP Code | Description |

Example
If we had an Instance in our database with an Id of 11004 with the following attributes
| Code Block | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| ||||
{
"description": "GET example description",
"environments": [11001],
"workflows": [],
"instanceId": 11004,
"instanceName": "GET Example Name",
"isActive": true, "pluginOperations": [],
"instanceCode": "GETEXAMPLECODE",
"groupCode": "GET example group",
"subGroupCode": "GET example sub group",
"isDeploymentTarget": false
} |
When we run a GET request at the following URL
http://host:port/flexdeploy/rest/v1/topology/instance/11004
The GET request would return the following JSON Instance object

"instanceId": 11004,

"instanceCode": "GETEXAMPLECODE",
"groupCode": "GET example group",
"subGroupCode": "GET example sub group",
"isDeploymentTarget": false

GET by Query Parameters
This GET service will return a list of Instances in the form of JSON objects based on the query parameters instanceCode, instanceName, groupCode, and subGroupCode. Instances 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 Instances. The instanceName parameter returns instances that contain the specified parameter. The other parameters must be equal to the instance.
