GET /v1/config/transforms

Summary

Retrieve metadata about all transforms installed using the /v1/config/transforms/{name} service.

URL Parameters
format? Specifies the content type of the response, as an alternative to using the Accept header. Accepted values: json and xml (default). This value takes precedence over the Accept headers.
refresh? Whether or not to refresh metadata before generating the response. Default: true.
Request Headers
Accept The expected MIME type of the information in the response. Accepted types: application/json or application/xml. Ignored if the request includes a format parameter value.

Response

Upon success, MarkLogic Server returns status 200 (OK) and returns the requested information in the response body.

Required Privileges

This operation requires the rest-reader role, or the following privilege:

http://marklogic.com/xdmp/privileges/rest-reader

Usage Notes

For more details, see Discovering Transformations in the REST Application Developer's Guide.

The expected response type can be specified using either the format parameter or Accept header. One or the other must be supplied. If both are supplied and are different, the format parameter takes precedence.

When refresh is true (the default), transform metadata is rebuilt from the most recent installation of all transforms. When set to false, the metadata in the response reflects the contents as of the last refresh, and may be out of synch if there has been a subsequent update to the extension. You should only need to set refresh to false if you find this request is taking too long. Transform metadata is only used for informational purposes, so neither the acessibility nor the output of a transform is affected by out of date metadata. The implementation is always up to date.

When refresh is true (the default), extension metadata is rebuilt from the most recent installation. When set to false, the metadata in the response reflects the contents as of the last refresh or App Server restart, and may be out of synch if there has been a subsequent update to the extension. You should only need to set refresh to false if you find this request is taking too long.
