ElasticSearch API examples

POSTMAN is used to construct requests quickly, save them for later use and analyze the responses sent by the API. Postman can dramatically cut down the time required to test and develop APIs.

Get details about a particular experiment

• This is a unique <id> created at the initialization of the experiment. This will be of the form of a random number like AVvNAQ9hL96eGG-XF3-R here:

URL: http://localhost:9200/protocol/info/AVvNAQ9hL96eGG-XF3-R (The id of the experiment)

        "query" : {
           "match_all" : {}

      }

Get details of the analysis of packets in a experiment

• Get the <id> from the _source term of a particular experiment (which can be obtained by the above request)
• The <id> will be of the form session_*
• For example <id> is session_827581779. Attach a protocol_ and perform the query as follows.

URL: http://localhost:9200/protocol_session_827581779/_search
