Getting Data In

Why am I getting "404 Not Found" for every REST API call?

I am using the following query as per documentation:

curl -k -u username:password http://myhosthere:8000/services/search/jobs/

(obviously I replaced username, password, and myhosthere)

And I get the following results:

404 Not Found
Return to Splunk home page
Page not found!

which is the same message I get when I use a regular browser.
So I understand that the URL is obviously wrong, so how do I get the right URL? Am I using incorrect documentation?

Use port 8089, not 8000

 curl -k -u username:password http://myhosthere:8089/services/search/jobs/

The app may be hosted on that particular port!

wherever the app app hosted the mgmt default port is 8089 so we need to use 8089 only for the rest, webui and rest api call ports are different
