Unity REST API GET users - how to select fields instead of getting all

Mark Dugas — Mon, 11 Apr 2022 20:18:03 GMT

I'm doing a REST GET on Unity 11.5 with:

GET https://{ip address}/vmrest/users

This gives me all 8000 users and every field for each user. I have shortened the number of users returned with:

GET https://{ip address}/vmrest/users?rowsPerPage=100&pageNumber=1

Next I'd like to reduce the fields to just the 8 that I need. I'm testing with SoapUI with the following:

GET https://{ip address}/vmrest/users?fields=OjbectId,Alias&rowsPerPage=100&pageNumber=1

however, I get the same result - still all the fields.

Is there a way to do this on Unity? Thanks so much.

As far as I know, the REST API does not support restricting results by specific fields.

It should be possible to do more specific things by accessing the Unity database and doing SQL stuff, which is semi-supported...lots of resources (some out of date) here: www.ciscounitytools.com

What fields were you looking to display on exactly?
