Using REST API to Retrieve Server and Site Metrics

Using REST API calls, after authenticating with the Server, you an retrieve the Server statistics and metrics, Site statistics and metrics, and Node statistics and metrics.

The screenshots below show the entries used to make the REST calls.

As previously mentioned there are multiple tools that end-users can use to execute REST API calls, but Visual Studio Code is a great tool for end-users getting familiar with REST API functionality.

The JSON file to create permissions or modify REST API permissions is found in the EFT installation files here: \ProgramData\Globalscape\EFT Server\PermissionRoles.Json
