Batching Requests¶
Multiple GET requests for different URI’s can be issued by a POST request against /axapi/v3/batch-get
. Using batching requests reduces the number of API calling times which improves the performance on the CLIENT side.
Intended Use and Limitations¶
Only the POST method is allowed.
The
schema request
call should not use the Batch-Get operation as it will result in failure.
Error Handling¶
If one of the API calls is incorrect, its corresponding response attribute
resp
will contain the error JSON data.
Example
The following example shows how to call multiple API’s in a single call:
POST /axapi/v3/batch-get
{
"batch-get-list" : [
{"uri":"/axapi/v3/interface/ethernet/1/schema"},
{"uri":"/axapi/v3/interface/ethernet?total=true"},
{"uri":"/axapi/v3/interface/ethernet?start=2&count=3"},
{"uri":"/axapi/v3/interface/ethernet?start=2&count=3&wrong-filter=xxx"},
{"uri":"/axapi/v3/interface/ethernet/1/oper"},
{"uri":"/axapi/v3/slb/server/s1/stats"},
{"uri":"/axapi/v3/no-such-endpoint"}
]
}
If this request succeeds, the following response will be recieved:
{
"batch-get-list": [
{
"uri":"/axapi/v3/interface/ethernet/1/schema",
"resp":{
"http-status":400,
