Retrieve basic firmware and host information

The /api/info endpoint contains generic information about the SPS host. Note that part of this information is available without authentication.

URL
GET https://<IP-address-of-SPS>/api/info
Cookies
Cookie name Description Required Values
session_id Contains the authentication token of the user Required

The value of the session ID cookie received from the REST server in the authentication response, for example, a1f71d030e657634730b9e887cb59a5e56162860. For details on authentication, see Authenticate to the SPS REST API.

NOTE: This session ID refers to the connection between the REST client and the SPS REST API. It is not related to the sessions that SPS records (and which also have a session ID, but in a different format)..

Sample request

The following command displays the information about SPS that is available without authentication.
