Access indexer cluster config ( /manager-apps/local ) via REST

NoSpaces — Fri, 22 Nov 2024 13:44:46 GMT

Hello to everyone!
I want to build a dashboard with which I can access information from config files of indexer cluster
I know that the typical scenario to access config files is using REST endpoints "/services/configs/conf-*"
But as I understood, these endpoints show only configuration files stored under /system/local/*.conf
Is it a way to access config files stored under /manager-apps/local ?

Get this app and place it on your DMC as best practice. The rest calls will access anything that is a search peer. The DMC node typically has your entire environment as a search peer in order to monitor the environment. The app does suggest install on a search head, but you might miss access to CM, HF, etc.

Of course if you have a single node cluster then there is no need to worry about where you install. Follow the instructions for a cloud based environment.

Thanks for the valuable advertising!
I don't need this app in general, but I can use queries from dashboard as examples to resolve my particular case.
