/services uses the current app and user context.

/servicesNS allows you to specify the app and user context--the namespace--with /servicesNS/<app>/<user> or /servicesNS/-/- for all apps and all users.

Namespaces and /servicesNS are documented in more detail here: https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/latest/RESTUM/RESTusing#Namespace
