Hi

In linux shell you could do next

UserPass=admin:changeme

curl -ku $up https://localhost:8089/services/search/jobs -d search="search index=_internal earliest=-1m|stats count"
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<response>
<sid>1593502508.3</sid>
</response>

curl -ku $up https://localhost:8089/services/search/jobs/1593502508.3/results/ --get -d output_mode_xml
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>
<results preview='0'>
<meta>
<fieldOrder>
<field>count</field>
</fieldOrder>
</meta>
<result offset='0'>
<field k='count'>
