Actually, if you hit

http[s]://[splunkweb hostname]:[splunkweb port]/debug/refresh

...you will not only refresh all available entities, but you will also be presented with a list of those entities.

Pretty cool TA that reloads Splunk config like using the URL debug/refresh by creating a " | refresh" command.

https://splunkbase.splunk.com/app/1871/

it will also display a list of the reloaded endpoint and the status, where status=200 means success.

I've seen timeouts when SSO is in play. If you're using SSO or have otherwise modified your root_endpoint, you'll need to adjust the URL to include your custom root endpoint.

Just to add this, you can refresh the entitities without explicitly hitting the endpoint, you can do so by CLI from the below command:
curl -u admin: -X POST http://:8089/servicesNS/-/-/admin/transforms-reload/_reload

above is an example of reloading the transforms entity, but in a similar way, you can do reload for other entities as well.

a list of all entities is as below:

This is abnormal behavior and possibly the sign that something is wrong with your instance. If all you want to get is the list of refreshable entities, I would suggest to hit that endpoint on another, healthier instance.

You are probably looking for http[s]://[splunkweb hostname]:[splunkweb port]/info.

Is there a list of all the debug commands? I know you can do /debug/sso to show info on single signon.
