GET Method

The GET HTTP method is used to read data or retrieve information about a resource. In case of success, the GET HTTP method returns the HTTP response code 200 Success; in the response body, the method returns a representation of the resource.

In the example below, the GET HTTP method is used to retrieve a resource representation of the default backup repository entity:

Request:

Response:

200 Success

 

Response Body:
