We have so many environments, projects, tentacles. so trying to sort out what can be done easily using REST API.

Hi Kumar,

The list of actions that can be done via the REST API is long.

There a few ways to explore the API:

  • A good starting point is the API documentation GitHub repository. It’s not entirely up-to-date, but still very useful for giving an idea of what can be done.
  • You can explore the API through your browser. Change your URL from http://octopus.your-company.com/app# to http://octopus.your-company.com/api, and you can follow the links.
  • Using the .NET client with Visual Studio, and just explore the available methods.

I hope this helps. If you have any specific questions, you know where to find us!

Regards,
Michael
