How to return data inside folders using the REST API?

I am having some difficulty constructing a query which is able to return metric names from within a folder. I am able to successfully return the names of the folders by using the "controller/rest/applications/<application_name>/metrics" query which gives the result:

What I would like to do is to have the contents of each folder returned in an API call. For example, what would be the query needed to return the name of all of the metrics inside of the "Overall Application Performance" folder?

Hi,

 

Can you try below and let us know if it helps. Replace username, account name and password with the correct credentials and run the below Rest API.

 

 

curl --user username@account_name:secret http://<controller_host>:<port>/controller/rest/applications/app_id/metrics?metric-path=Overall%20Application%20Performance

 

Thanks,

Yogesh
