Count parameter

The count parameter of the GET method returns the number of entries that match the specified URI. The count parameter can be useful when specifying resource collections or for getting statistical information.

You can specify the count parameter as either of the following:

  • count

  • count=true

Examples:

  • Use the count parameter to get the total number of VLANs: 

    GET "https://192.0.2.5/rest/v1/system/bridge/vlans?count=true"

  • Use the count parameter with the filter parameter to get the total number of interfaces in a down administrative state: 

    GET "https://192.0.2.5/rest/v1/system/interfaces?count&filter=admin_state:down"
