Using REST URLs to Administer GlassFish Server

Each node in the configuration and monitoring object trees is represented as a REST resource that is accessible through an HTTP uniform resource locator (URL). Access to REST resources for GlassFish Server monitoring and configuration data requires a running DAS.

The replaceable items in these URLs are as follows:

host

The host where the DAS is running.

port

The HTTP port or HTTPS port for administration.

path

The path to the node. The path is the dotted name of the node in which each dot (.) is replaced with a slash (/). For more information, see the following documentation:
