Parameters

Name Type In Required Description

return_timeout

integer

query

False

The number of seconds to allow the call to execute before returning. When doing a POST, PATCH, or DELETE operation on a single record, the default is 0 seconds. This means that if an asynchronous operation is started, the server immediately returns HTTP code 202 (Accepted) along with a link to the job. If a non-zero value is specified for POST, PATCH, or DELETE operations, ONTAP waits that length of time to see if the job completes so it can return something other than 202.

  • Default value: 1

  • Max value: 120

  • Min value: 0

return_records

boolean

query

False

The default is false. If set to true, the records are returned.

  • Default value:
