Specify parameters in a resource address

Resource addresses can take parameters to do the following:

• Specify the format of the returned view

• Return a filtered view

To specify multiple parameters, use the ‘?’ sign before the first parameter and the ‘&’ sign before any additional parameters:

https://host:port/manage/LATEST/resource?param1=value&param2=value....

Some resource addresses support optional parameters that are specific to that resource address. For example, to return monitoring information on the forests used by the Documents database, you can use the database-id parameter with the /forests resource as follows:

https://monitor_host:8002/manage/LATEST/forests?database-id=Documents

The remainder of this section describes the format parameter in more detail.
