Get All CI(s) Count

To read (obtain) the number of CIs available in your organization use the following URL format:

http://<hostname>:<port>/api/cmdb/ci/count/all/

Assuming you want to read the number of CIs associated with the local server with port number 8080, the URL should be given as:

http://localhost:8080/api/cmdb/ci/count/all

Keypoints:

The operation name "read" should be sent as a "POST attribute" with key "OPERATION_NAME".
The technician key should be sent as a "POST attribute" with key "TECHNICIAN_KEY".

Note:

To read CIs count of a specific CI Type, give the CI Type's name in the URL instead of all.
Parameter Result Format - Optional. specifies the return format ( XML or JSON )

If no result format specified then API will return output in JSON format.
