Get requests for getting data

[Alex Mika]

I want to be able to do the following requests using curl:

1. Get all child of categories by categoryKey or Name

2. Get all entities of specific contenttype --> returns: meta data and all meta data of related relationship entity

Please help me with curl commands this will help me for my project thanks

> 1. Get all child of categories by categoryKey or Name

Not sure this is possible.  I think the only Rest API method for categories only returns the top level ones and I don't see a way to do anything useful to get the children.
You can filter this but I couldn't quickly figure out how:  curl -H "Content-Type: application/json" -u ad...@dotcms.com:admin -XGET http://localhost:8080/api/v1/categories

> 2. Get all entities of specific contenttype --> returns: meta data and all meta data of related relationship entity

The Content API gets you everything you need here, might need more than 1 curl request though - https://dotcms.com/docs/latest/content-query-api
Example:  curl -H "Content-Type: application/json" -u ad...@dotcms.com:admin -XGET http://localhost:8080/api/content/query/%2BcontentType%3AProduct

Might help if you explain what you are trying to do.  Hope it helps!

I'd use some script language you are comfortable with, pull all of them and then filter it down in code.  There is no documentation on this endpoint at all and what that filter parameter is supposed to accept so I can't really help there. But from what I can see just hitting it locally on my machine, it does not contain the information you are looking for.  You might have to do something like make a page in dotCMS that uses velocity to pull what you want and spit out something you can call with curl and parse out easily.
