Get Physical Connectors by Equipment

get

/equipment/{id}/physicalConnectors

Gets all physical connectors that match the specified equipment ID.

Attribute selection is enabled for all first-level attributes.

The filtering criteria can include:

  • serialNumber

For information about the filter operators, see Get Resources.

Optionally, use the expand parameter to specify any resource relationships (resourceRelationship.INVOLVE) that you want to see details for. By default, you'll just see links for these.

Optionally, use the depth parameter to expand the level of referenced entities. If depth=0, all referenced entities in RootEntity objects will contain only the ID, HREF, and @type. If depth=N, it expands reference objects of related entities recursively, and the last level contains only the references. The default is depth=0.

For information about sorting details, see Get Resources.

Examples

This example shows how to get the physical connector details for the equipment entity with an ID of 8-750002 by submitting a GET request on the REST resource using cURL. For more information about cURL, see "Install and Use cURL".

cURL Command

curl -X GET "http://hostname:port/InventoryRSOpenAPI/resourceInventoryManagement/version/equipment/8-750002/physicalConnectors?fields=none" -H credentials

where:

  • hostname is the URL for the UIM REST server.
  • port is the port for the UIM REST server.
  • version is the version of the API you're using.
  • credentials is the base64 encoding of the user ID and password joined by a single colon (ID:password). See "Authentication and Authorization".

Example of Response Body

This example shows the contents of the response body in JSON format. It shows the list of physical connectors for the equipment entity with ID 8-750002.
