Syntax
SHOW ENDPOINT <endpoint>
Arguments
| Argument | Required | Values | Default |

Examples
SHOW ENDPOINT 17;
SHOW ENDPOINT PINGMAIL;
SHOW ENDPOINT findAll;
Details
Finding the endpoint
- A numeric id is unique across every API, so it needs no
CONNECT APIsession. - Any other text is tried as an alias, then as a name, in the API of the session, which is then required.
A name that matches several endpoints shows the candidates in a table (ID, method, folder, name, alias, path) instead of choosing one: use the id or the alias then.
What is shown
One endpoint, field by field, as SHOW CONNECTION shows a connection: ID, API, folder, name, alias, method and the effective URL (base path, enabled query parameters and fragment, as the CONFIG API editor and RUN build it). Then, when present:
- the query and path parameters (name, value, enabled or not) and the headers; a value flagged as secret is shown as
******; - the request body (mode and full content);
- the authentication, by type only (
Inherited, or the configured type), never a credential.
Only values flagged as secret are masked: a secret typed into a value that was never flagged is not detected.
