Getting Data In

Why REST API in SPLUNK return less data compare to data return directly from the URL

Hi,

I used following command to get the computer related detail:
https://myserver:port_num/api/sam/computer_systems?columns[]=computer_id&columns[]=host_name&columns...

I have configured the same command into REST API in SPLUNK as app_rest1 . When I run it under Search source="rest://app_rest1", the result or the row is much more lesser. Let say I have 500 computer related information return from the URL, I expect the same, however it only return about 30 computer in SPLUNK.

Is there any other setting that I need to configure ?

Try:
|REST /servicesNS/-/-/....

Or Splunk_server=local
